The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 has published a Special Notice of Intent for a sole source procurement of Hologic Panther Reagents to support the Iowa City VA Healthcare System. This Notice, posted on June 10, 2025, announces the VA's intention to award a firm fixed-price Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Hologic Sales and Service, LLC under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), which permits sole source awards when only one contractor can satisfy agency requirements. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and Product Service Code 6640 for Laboratory Equipment and Supplies. Market research conducted by the VA determined that Hologic Sales and Service, LLC is the only company capable of providing the specialized reagents needed for the healthcare system's operations.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the marketplace of the VA's intent to proceed with a non-competitive procurement while providing an opportunity for other vendors to demonstrate their capability to fulfill the requirement. Interested contractors have until June 17, 2025, to submit capability statements and supporting documentation to Contract Specialist Emanuel Nevarez via email, specifically addressing the subject line "36C26325Q0870 Hologic Panther Reagents." To be considered as an alternative source, vendors must provide documentation from the proprietary rights holder, Hologic Sales and Service, LLC, demonstrating their authorization as a reseller, dealer, or third party capable of providing the required reagents. The five-year contract period will run from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2030, covering reagent kits and collection devices compatible with the Hologic Panther Instrument for various medical tests including HPV, COVID-19, HIV, and HCV. The government retains sole discretion in determining whether to proceed with competitive procurement based on the responses received.
