About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 1, is announcing its intent to sole source a cable television services contract to Comcast Cable Communications LLC for the Northampton VA Medical Center, with responses due by July 3, 2026, at 8:00 AM EST. The VA intends to award a firm-fixed contract for Comcast Cable services including installation for one base year plus four option years under FAR 6.302-1, citing Comcast as the only responsible source capable of satisfying agency requirements. Market research confirmed no alternative providers serve the Northampton VA Medical Center location at 421 North Main Street, Leeds, Massachusetts; switching to a competing provider would require removing and replacing Comcast's proprietary cable system currently installed throughout the Medical Center buildings, incurring significant costs and service disruptions that would negatively impact patient care. The NAICS code is 517111 (Wired Telecommunications Carriers); the PSC code is DG10 (IT and Telecom – Network as a Service). Responsible sources that believe they qualify to provide the required services may submit detailed documentation to glorimar.estevezcortorreal@va.gov by the response deadline to support market research and demonstrate qualification. This is not a competitive solicitation and no formal RFP is currently available; the government reserves the right to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses received.
