Dental Chairs and Equipment

The Wichita VA Medical Center, part of Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 within the Department of Veterans Affairs, is conducting a sources sought inquiry to identify potential suppliers for dental chairs and related equipment. The procurement specifically targets Adec dental equipment including 511 Patient Chairs, 532PRO TRAD Radius Delivery Systems, 551STA Radius ASST INSTM, 521 Doctor's Stools, 522 Assistant Stools, and Blanket Wrap Service, with equivalent brands considered if they meet the critical requirement of a maximum load rating of 500 pounds. Interested vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and provide comprehensive company information including business size, socioeconomic status, authorized distributor relationships, equipment manufacturing origin, and any applicable Federal Supply Schedule contract numbers. Responses are limited to five pages and must be submitted by 12:00 PM CST on October 17, 2025, to the designated contracting officer Tonesha King. The anticipated contract structure will be firm fixed-price, with the specific solicitation type determined based on the responses received to this market research effort.

This procurement opportunity does not include any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors regardless of business size, though it falls under NAICS code 339114 with a small business size standard of 750 employees. The sources sought notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers, nor does it specify award values, budget ranges, or quantities of equipment needed. The document emphasizes that this is purely an informational request to gauge market capabilities and interest, and no contracts will be awarded directly from this sources sought process. The timeline indicates a brief eight-day response window from the October 9, 2025 posting date to the October 17, 2025 submission deadline, suggesting the VA may be moving toward a formal solicitation relatively quickly based on the market feedback received.
