About this opportunity

This solicitation seeks offers to establish a supply contract to provide various medical cylinder gases to facilities operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 5. Required products include compressed medical air, oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, helium, and specialty gas mixtures. Offerors must meet delivery and equipment requirements and provide pricing on the attached spreadsheets for cylinder rentals, gas fills, and optional items over a base year plus four one-year options. The solicitation will result in a fixed-price award made to the lowest priced technically acceptable offer. The response deadline was initially May 19, 2023 but has been extended to June 9, 2023 through multiple amendments.

There is no set-aside designated. The place of performance covers medical centers and clinics located in Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Pricing sheets include estimated annual quantities and extended totals for cylinder rentals and fills over the base year and four option years. The government files provide rental, fill, and replacement pricing details for the base year as well as each option year to aid in offer preparation. NAICS codes likely include 424690 (Other Chemical and Allied Products Merchant Wholesalers), 561320 (Temporary Help Services), and 238290 (Other Specialty Trade Contractors).

Clarifiction: To calculate estimated annual extended totals for rental. Assume the quantities on the pricing sheet are the total number of cylinders onsite for the whole year. The unit price goes in the first column. The second column should indicate whether that rate is daily, weekly, monthly, etc. The third column shows the extended price. The fourth column should reflect the cost if the VA rented that quantity for the whole year.

Example: 30 cylinders at a rate of $0.30 per day = $9.00/ day = $3,285/year
