6515--Work Bench Station

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 2, specifically the Stratton VA Medical Center, is conducting a sources sought market research initiative for Work Bench Station equipment classified under Product Service Code 6515 (Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies) and NAICS Code 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing). The Government intends to award made in America item(s) and is seeking information from small business manufacturers, distributors, or large businesses capable of providing the equipment. Prospective vendors must submit responses addressing fifteen specific information requirements, including company details, small business program eligibility status, manufacturer or distributor status, domestic manufacturing confirmation, and SAM.gov Unique Entity ID number. The Government will evaluate submissions based on vendor capability, manufacturing capacity, and compliance with domestic sourcing requirements, though formal evaluation results will not be communicated to respondents. All responses must be submitted by 12:00 PM EST on Thursday, May 13, 2026, to Erskine.Shoulars@va.gov, with the point of contact being the Contracting Officer at the James J. Peters VA Medical Center in Bronx, New York, while the place of performance is the Buffalo VA Medical Center.

No set-aside category has been identified at this preliminary stage of market research, and no incumbent contractors or award values are specified in the sources sought notice. The Government is not seeking formal proposals at this time and will not pay for information solicited; this notice is strictly for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a commitment to award a contract. Prospective vendors are encouraged to indicate whether they hold GSA Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contracts, NASA SEWP contracts, or other federal contract vehicles, which may facilitate future procurement processes. The sources sought notice will be archived 90 days after the May 13, 2026 response date, and no quantity of goods or service timeline has been disclosed at this market research stage. Interested parties with questions should contact the Contracting Officer directly, as this pre-solicitation notice represents the initial phase of identifying qualified sources for the Work Bench Station requirement.
