About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration intends to award a sole source Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Illumina, Inc. for Illumina reagent supplies needed to operate the VA's Illumina equipment. The VA will use Simplified Acquisition Procedures under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which allows for sole source procurements when only one source is reasonably available. No solicitation or Request for Quotes will be issued. Interested parties may submit product information to the Contracting Officer, Tara Dossiema, at tara.dossiema@va.gov by May 13, 2024 at 9:00 am EST.
This procurement is not set aside for any specific category of business. Illumina is the incumbent contractor and likely the only reasonably available source given the VA's existing Illumina equipment and proprietary reagent requirements. The VA has not disclosed an estimated award value or budget range, but the supplies will be ordered on an as-needed basis through the BPA. The place of performance is the VA Boston Healthcare System in Jamaica Plain, MA, and the Product Service Code is 6550 with a NAICS code of 325413.
