About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 issued a Limited Sources Justification for a bridge Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for hematology laboratory services, awarding contract 36C25626A0006 to Beckman Coulter, Inc. on October 1, 2025. The BPA covers automated hematology instrumentation, reagents, calibrators, controls, training, troubleshooting, and service for 8 medical centers and 20 outpatient clinic laboratories across the VISN 16 network from October 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025. The sole-source justification was based on Beckman Coulter being the only vendor capable of providing the required specialized services, with existing validated instrumentation already in use across the network, making them essential for maintaining continuity of critical laboratory testing services for veterans. This bridge contract serves as a temporary measure to prevent interruption of patient care while the agency prepares for a long-term competitive solicitation. The contract continues at current BPA pricing, which is discounted from Federal Supply Schedule rates and is expected to generate annual cost avoidance, though the specific contract value was not disclosed in the available documentation.
