About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 23, published a Notice of Intent on October 23, 2025, announcing its intention to award a sole source, firm-fixed price contract to HID GLOBAL CORP for a Uniform Inventory System Mxs - MPLS. This special notice is issued in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) and does not constitute a competitive solicitation. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 513210 (Software Publishers) and product service code DA10 (IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Software as a Service). The VA justifies the sole source award under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), citing that HID GLOBAL CORP is the only responsible source capable of satisfying agency requirements due to the proprietary nature of the equipment and software.
The primary objective of this notice is to inform the contracting community of the VA's intent while providing an opportunity for alternative vendors to demonstrate their capability to meet the government's requirements. Interested vendors have seven calendar days from the notice publication date to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations to Robert Bennett at robert.bennett8@va.gov by October 30, 2025. All responsible sources may participate in this submission process, which will be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted instead. The VA acknowledges that HID GLOBAL CORP provides proprietary equipment with exclusive authorization for installation and servicing; however, any vendor demonstrating the ability to fully satisfy government requirements will be considered. The government reserves sole discretion to decide whether to proceed with competitive bidding based on submitted responses.
Notice text
This is a Notice of Intent published in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) requiring the dissemination of information regarding proposed contract actions. This Notice of Intent is for a proposed award of a sole source, firm-fixed price contract under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. It is not a request for competitive quotes.
The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 23, intends to award a sole source, firm-fixed price contract to HID GLOBAL CORP with 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements because this equipment is provided by the Original Equipment Manufacturer who provides approved parts, software and maintenance that are proprietary in nature. No other third-party vendor is authorized to install or service this equipment. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 513210 and the product service code is DA10.
While this synopsis does not constitute a solicitation, interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to satisfy the requirement. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. The Government understands the equipment HID GLOBAL CORP provides is proprietary. However, vendors that believe they can provide the capabilities required to fully meet the Government's requirement may submit information in writing to Robert.bennett8@va.gov within seven calendar days after publication of this notice. Such documentation will be reviewed solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct the procurement on a competitive basis. A determination not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government.
