About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 awarded a $6,087,137 seven-year contract to Beckman Coulter, Inc. on October 1, 2026, for clinical laboratory instrumentation, reagents, supplies, and services at the Wilkes-Barre VA Medical Center, PA.

The award was made under GSA Federal Supply Schedule Contract V797D-70260 following a sole-source justification. The procurement includes lease of a Beckman DxA 5000 automation line to replace the facility's existing Power Express system, scheduled for replacement by May 18, 2027. The contract encompasses over 80 clinical laboratory test types—including chemistry panels, immunoassays, therapeutic drug monitoring, toxicology, and hematology testing with auto-verification capabilities—with estimated annual volumes ranging from 10 to 111,285 tests. Market research included a Virtual Industry Day on August 20, 2026, and an Intent to Sole Source notice that generated one Abbott response deemed non-compliant. The justification cited Beckman Coulter's proprietary Remisol advanced middleware for auto-verification integration with existing facility systems, exclusive manufacturing of the MDW biomarker, and specialized instrumentation features including the Tube Inspection Module and PrecisionVision imaging. Transitioning to an alternate platform would require approximately $146,434.18 in additional costs and 3 to 18 months of implementation time during which auto-verification capability would be unavailable.
