About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 has awarded a sole-source order to Span-America Medical Systems, Inc. for ten Control Units (Part Number 27686) valued at $19,547.70 on September 20, 2026.
The control units are digital pumps required to activate therapeutic modes of Span-America Custom Care Convertible Low Air Loss mattresses currently in use at the Dayton VA Medical Center Community Living Center. Part Number 27686 is a modified version engineered specifically for integration with Umano bed frames at the facility, featuring shorter footboard attachment hooks and power cords. The justification establishes sole-source award authority under RFO 12.102(a) based on the system's proprietary design: the mattress air channels, internal Star Chamber design, and Air Diffusion Matrix rely on Span-America's engineered airflow and pressure metrics, and the system uses custom quick-connect, color-coded air lines incompatible with third-party manufacturers. Market research conducted in August 2026 identified three FSS contracts offering Span-America items; one vendor offered a part variation (U-27686 through SDVOSB Maness Veteran Medical, LLC) at a significantly higher price than the OEM's own contract offering. The Contracting Officer concluded that neither the VA Rule of Two nor the SBA Rule of Two would be reasonably expected to be met. The justification was approved and certified on August 18, 2026 by Contracting Officer Grover D. Easterling, Jr.
