About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration is conducting market research to identify potential vendors for Cepheid GeneXpert Molecular Diagnostic Testing System supplies and services through a Sources Sought notice. The procurement focuses on obtaining PCR testing equipment and related services for diagnosing multiple medical conditions including COVID-19, Influenza, RSV, C-Diff, Women's Health infections, and Tuberculosis. Interested vendors must submit their company information, including contact details, DUNS number, and socio-economic status to david.alvarez4@va.gov by 10:00 AM Pacific Time on May 30, 2025. Vendors must have a valid System for Award Management (SAM) registration with the NAICS code 325413 and be prepared to provide capability statements and an authorized distributor letter. The VA will verify Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) status using VetBiz.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates this will be a five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract covering five ordering periods from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2030. There is no specific set-aside designation for this opportunity, meaning businesses of all sizes can compete. The contract requires vendors to provide 24x7 phone support, onsite 5x10 hour service, annual preventative maintenance, software upgrades, and maintain a 98% uptime guarantee for VA-owned GeneXpert analyzers. The anticipated annual requirement is approximately 100-450 test kits across various diagnostic categories. While no specific award value is mentioned, the comprehensive service requirements and multi-year contract duration suggest a potentially significant procurement opportunity for qualified medical diagnostic equipment and service providers.
