About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 21 is seeking to procure a Custom Waveform Generator from Soterix Medical, Inc. through a sole-source procurement. The solicitation is for a specific MxN-5/33 PRO HD-tES Custom Waveform Generator with associated accessories, including connecting cables, HD electrodes, electrode holders, and related equipment for VA-funded research performing transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) and direct current stimulation (tDCS) on research participants. The procurement will be conducted as a firm-fixed-price purchase order under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) and 41 USC 1901, with responses due by January 17, 2025, at 10:00 AM Hawaii Standard Time. Interested parties may submit a Statement of Capability, including GSA Schedule information, System for Awards Management (SAM) UEI#, business size, and socio-economic status for the NAICS code 334510. The government will evaluate responses to determine whether a competitive procurement might be more appropriate, though they have already identified Soterix Medical as the only source capable of meeting their specific requirements.
The solicitation is unrestricted and carries no specific set-aside designation, with a size standard of 1,250 employees for the NAICS category of Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing. The place of performance is San Francisco, CA 94121, and the contract period runs from January 31, 2025, to March 28, 2025. Market research conducted through VetCert, SAM, NAC, and GSA identified 320 Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) and Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSBs) in the relevant NAICS code, but Soterix Medical was determined to be the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and only authorized distributor of the required generator. The procurement will include one Custom Waveform Generator, one Cable Disconnector, and five Hybrid BioSemi Electrode Holders. If no competitive responses are received by the specified deadline, the VA will proceed with the sole-source acquisition from Soterix Medical, Inc.
