6515--V. A. C. ULTA THERAPY UNIT (Brand Name Only)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 12, specifically the Great Lakes Acquisition Center, is soliciting offers for one V.A.C. ULTA Therapy Unit, a medical device used for negative pressure wound therapy. This procurement is structured as a single-source, brand-name-only award to ensure standardized care and compatibility with the facility's existing KCI wound vac equipment, accessories, and disposables. The contractor must manufacture and deliver the unit, provide on-site installation and setup within 30-45 days of award, and conduct staff training within 15 days of installation at no additional cost. Award will be made to the lowest-price, technically-acceptable quoter based on a Firm-Fixed-Price contract structure. The offer due date is February 10, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. CST, with the contracting officer being Waymon McNeal (414-844-4861, waymon.mcnealjr@va.gov).

This solicitation is designated as a 100% small business set-aside, with the current incumbent being KCI, the original manufacturer of the wound vac units already in use at the facility. The procurement involves the delivery of one complete unit to William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin, with delivery required within 60 days after contract award. No specific budget range is disclosed in the solicitation; however, the Firm-Fixed-Price contract type indicates a defined cost structure. The contractor must furnish all tools and equipment necessary for installation at no additional cost to the government. All payments will be processed through electronic funds transfer via the Tungsten Network, with invoicing submitted in arrears upon government acceptance of the delivered equipment.
