About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 4, through the Altoona VA Medical Center, is seeking sources for a new SLT/YAG laser system for ophthalmological procedures. This is a Source Sought Notice rather than an active solicitation, with solicitation number 36C24426Q0096. The primary qualification requirement restricts competition to small business concerns owned and controlled by veterans, specifically service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSB) or veteran-owned small businesses (VOSB) that are verified by the Small Business Administration and meet eligibility requirements under 38 U.S.C. 8127. Interested vendors must possess an active System for Award Management (SAM) registration and submit comprehensive responses including company details, socio-economic status questionnaire responses, capability statements, relevant literature, an Original Equipment Manufacturer Letter of Authorization, and product brochures or specification sheets. Responses are due by November 26, 2025, at 4:30 PM EST, with all inquiries directed to Contract Specialist Nathan Lohr. The equipment must be shipped and installed at the Altoona VA Medical Center in Altoona, Pennsylvania.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation beyond the veteran-owned small business priority established under federal statute. No incumbent contractor or current vendor information has been identified in the notice. The opportunity does not specify an award value or budget range at this pre-solicitation stage. The NAICS code 339115 (Ophthalmic Goods Manufacturing) applies, with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees. As this is a Source Sought Notice, the government is not currently soliciting bids or proposals but reserves the right to issue a formal solicitation at a later date based on responses received and market research findings.
