The Department of Veterans Affairs' VA Loma Linda Healthcare System (VALLHCS) is seeking qualified vendors to provide Advanced Laser Services using KTP/CO2/VBeam laser technologies for surgical procedures. The procurement is structured as a Sources Sought Notice (36C26226Q0182) rather than a formal solicitation, requesting that interested parties submit capability statements demonstrating experience with similar work. Key requirements include providing fully trained technicians to operate laser equipment during surgical cases, maintaining equipment to specifications (including up to 15 watts of power output with 160 watts peak power and 1-10 pulses per second capability), and ensuring availability during regular business hours and potential emergency situations.

Capability statements must be submitted by December 23, 2025, at 11:00am Mountain Time, with all interested vendors required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).

This procurement does not utilize any small business set-asides, though the solicitation is primarily targeting Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses, Veteran Owned Small Businesses, 8(a) certified firms, HubZone eligible businesses, and other small business categories. The contract is valued at $19.0 million for a one-year period from February 1, 2026, through January 31, 2027, and falls under NAICS code 621493 (Freestanding Ambulatory Surgical and Emergency Centers). No incumbent contractor information is specified in the sources sought notice. The procurement is classified under PSC category W099 (Lease or Rental of Equipment—Miscellaneous), indicating that the services may involve equipment operation and maintenance in support of VALLHCS surgical operations.
