About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 (VISN 08) has issued a Special Notice for an Intent to Sole Source procurement of i-STAT CPT Bedside Handheld Analyzers Reagents. The notice covers laboratory equipment and reagent supplies for medical testing at Tampa James A. Haley Veterans Hospital and Bay Pines C.W. Bill Young VA Medical Center. The procurement includes single-use test cartridges for various clinical tests such as Troponin-I, Activated Clotting Time, Creatinine, and Arterial Blood Gas Panels. The contract's anticipated performance period spans from May 1, 2025, through April 30, 2030, with potential for four additional one-year option periods. The solicitation is specifically for continuing the current equipment lease and reagent supply purchase.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to validate the sole-source procurement approach and invite potential contractors to dispute the method. Interested businesses, including large businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned firms, small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, HUBZone, 8(a), women-owned, and small disadvantaged businesses are eligible to respond. Contractors must submit a response by April 18, 2025, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time, including specific details such as company name, contact information, Federal Supply Schedule, socioeconomic categories, brief project experience, and business size. The notice uses NAICS code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and Product Service Code 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies). Respondents are expected to provide a comprehensive yet concise (one-page maximum) submission demonstrating their capability to meet the government's requirements and potentially challenge the sole-source procurement approach.
