About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Network Contracting Office 1, on behalf of the Togus VA Medical Center in Augusta, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to sole source a firm-fixed contract to STERIS Corporation of Mentor, Ohio. The procurement involves the purchase of two new STERIS AMSCO Evolution Electric Steam Sterilizers with built-in electric steam generators and accessories for the medical center's Sterile Processing Services department. This notice serves as advance notification that the VA intends to award the contract without competitive bidding under the authority of FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(B), which permits sole sourcing when only one supplier can provide the required supplies or services at the necessary quality level. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and falls within PSC category 6530 for Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to provide market research opportunities for other potential vendors who believe they can provide equivalent products and services to challenge the proposed sole source award. Any responsible sources who feel qualified to provide the specialized steam sterilization equipment must submit their responses by September 18, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST to Contract Specialist Divianna Mathurin at divianna.mathurin@va.gov. Contractors must provide detailed and relevant documentation demonstrating their capability to supply the highly specialized medical sterilization equipment required by the VA. The government emphasizes that this is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation is currently available, with the final determination to proceed with sole source procurement remaining entirely at the government's discretion. The VA's justification centers on the unique and highly specialized nature of the equipment, standardization requirements, and existing facility infrastructure compatibility with STERIS products.
