About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for emergency fixed-wing air ambulance services covering Southern, Northern, and Phoenix Arizona VA Healthcare Systems. The contract, awarded to Air EMS Inc. of Tulsa, Oklahoma, is valued at $547,000 and will provide pre-arranged Basic Life Support (BLS), Advanced Life Support (ALS), and Critical Care Transport (CCT) air ambulance services from April 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025, with three potential one-month option periods. The sole source justification is predicated on an urgent need, as the new nationwide Fixed-Wing Air Ambulance contract will not be awarded on time, and the VA emphasizes that service gaps could potentially result in veteran deaths or perceptions of inadequate patient care. Market research identified 196 ambulance service providers, with only two Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses capable of providing the service, ultimately leading to Air EMS Inc. being selected as the sole source provider. The contract was executed under FAR 6.302-2 for unusual and compelling urgency, with detailed allocations of $196,000 for Southern and Phoenix VA systems and $155,000 for the Northern Arizona VA system.
