Delivery, Installation, and Performance of Skytron lighting systems: Exam Lights, Trauma Lights, and supplies for the emergency department at the Gallup Indian Medical Center in Gallup NM

The Indian Health Service, specifically the Navajo Area Gallup Indian Medical Center in Gallup, New Mexico, has published a Special Notice regarding the procurement of specialized medical lighting systems for their emergency department. The agency intends to award a single source contract to Alliant Enterprises, LLC for the delivery, installation, and performance of Skytron lighting equipment. The procurement includes two Skytron L55-43/35 Trauma Lumos Lights, seventeen Skytron AUT1C ED Exam Lights, and associated supplies. This opportunity falls under NAICS code 335132 for Commercial, Industrial, and Institutional Electric Lighting Fixture Manufacturing, with a small business size standard of 600 employees. The notice was posted on September 11, 2025, with a response deadline of September 16, 2025.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the agency's intent to proceed with a single source award rather than conducting a competitive procurement process. The procurement is being conducted under FAR Part 12 for commercial items and FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, specifically citing circumstances where only one source is deemed available for the required specialized medical lighting systems. The notice explicitly states that it is not a request for quotations and that no formal solicitation will be issued in conjunction with this announcement. Contractors should note that this represents a completed procurement decision rather than an opportunity to compete, as the agency has determined that the specific requirements can only be met by the identified vendor. The procurement stays within the simplified acquisition threshold limits, allowing for the streamlined single source approach to promote efficiency and economy in contracting.
