About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office - NCO 15 is seeking quotes for Aesculap containers and baskets to be delivered to the Robert J. Dole Medical Facility in Wichita, Kansas. The procurement involves various aluminum containers and baskets in different configurations including 1/1, 1/2, and 3/4 sizes with basket dimensions ranging from 55mm to 105mm, specifically for surgical applications. This is a firm-fixed price, FOB destination requirement that will be evaluated based on technical requirements, past performance, delivery, and price, with the first three factors weighted as significantly more important than pricing. Vendors must be authorized distributors and submit appropriate documentation demonstrating their distributor status along with their quotes. The RFQ was released on August 22, 2025, with questions due by August 27, 2025, and quote submissions required by September 2, 2025, at 11:00 AM Central Daylight Time via email to the designated contracting officers.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) with a size standard of 800 employees. The solicitation does not specify award values or quantities in the available documentation, though it indicates this is a brand-specific procurement for Aesculap products. Delivery is required within 30 days after receipt of order to the VA medical facility's warehouse and ground loading dock in Wichita, Kansas. All prospective contractors must maintain current registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) database and complete electronic annual representations and certifications, with Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB) and Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) firms required to be verified through the Small Business Administration. The contract will be structured as a purchase order for commercial products delivered to the specified Kansas location.
