About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 1, issued a notice of intent to sole source cable television service to Comcast Cable Communications LLC for Bedford VA Medical Center, with a response deadline of June 29, 2026, by 8:00 AM Eastern Time. The procurement is restricted to Comcast under FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source available).

Network Contract Office 1, Procurement Office East, intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract for cable service and installation covering one base year (July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027) plus four one-year option periods extending through June 30, 2031. The facility is located at 200 Springs Road, Bedford, Massachusetts. The justification rests on Comcast's proprietary cable system already installed throughout the medical center; transitioning to an alternative provider would require removal and replacement of existing infrastructure at significant cost while disrupting patient operations. Market research conducted through SBA DSBS, FPDS, GSA eLibrary, and ADDS UP confirmed no viable alternative providers serve the area. The NAICS code is 517111 (Wired Telecommunications Carriers).

Responsible sources believing they qualify to provide cable services may submit detailed documentation to glorimar.estevezcortorreal@va.gov by June 29, 2026. The government will use submitted information solely to determine whether competitive procurement is warranted. This is not a request for proposals; no solicitation is currently available.
