The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 is seeking to procure a Philips physiological monitoring system upgrade for the Fayetteville Veterans Affairs Medical Center through an open market, firm-fixed-price contract with a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business set-aside. The solicitation will require Philips monitoring equipment, software, servers, cabling and networking equipment for installation and integration with turnkey services to be provided by Philips North America LLC certified technicians. Responses will be due by August 16, 2021. The contract will be awarded based on best value considering technical acceptability, past performance, and price. Installation must be completed within 12 months of order receipt.

The procurement has been set aside only for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses and is being conducted as a brand name sole source justification based on the incumbent Philips equipment currently used across VISN 6. The work will be performed at the Fayetteville VAMC location. Two potential SDVOSB contractors were identified as authorized Philips distributors. The total contract value and specific quantities were not provided but the upgrade work is expected to be completed within one year of award. PSC codes J070 and NAICS code 334510 for medical, electro-mechanical, and electrotherapeutic apparatus manufacturing appear relevant to this requirement.
