About this opportunity

The Air Force Materiel Command, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio has issued a Special Notice for GE Venue GO software upgrades under a small business set-aside procurement. This opportunity involves upgrading software for two existing GE Medical Systems ultrasonic scanning systems, specifically the Venue Go R2 system, with a procurement value based on Fiscal Year 2025 funding. The notice was posted on September 10, 2025, with responses due by September 24, 2025. The acquisition falls under NAICS code 513210 (Software Publishers) and PSC category 7B22 for IT and telecom computing equipment. Colonel Paul W. Tinker has been designated as the Ombudsman to address contractor concerns during the proposal development process.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to procure two H8043UB Venue Go R4 software upgrades that include advanced features such as target nerve landmark identification, panoramic view capabilities, power Doppler imaging, touch-operated pointer functions, reference image capabilities, and AI-assisted ejection fraction calculation. The Air Force is pursuing this as a single-source procurement because replacing the existing GE system with alternative equipment would create compatibility issues and potentially void current warranties. Market research was previously conducted through RFI postings on SAM.gov and DMMonline with no responses received. The contract is 100% set-aside for small businesses, with two Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (TrillaMed, LLC and Frontline Healthcare, LLC) already identified as potential contractors. The acquisition includes installation and testing services to be performed upon software delivery, and the contracting officer has determined that circumstances justify single-source procurement under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

Notice text

Air Force Materiel Command, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Wright-Patterson AFB OH, intends to award a small business set aside for GE Venue Go software upgrades in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 19.5, as supplemented with additional information in this notice.  Market research was previously conducted, and there is reasonable expectation of obtaining offers from two or more responsible small business concerns that are competitive in terms of fair market prices, quality, and delivery.

Col(S) Paul W. Tinker has been appointed as Ombudsman to hear concerns from offerors, or potential offerors, during the proposal development. The purpose of the Ombudsman is to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel.

Accordingly, the Ombudsman does not participate in the preparation of solicitations, the evaluation of proposals or the source selection process and, therefore, for routine matters on individual solicitations, please contact the buyer at the telephone number listed herein. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. Should you desire to contact the Ombudsman, Col(S) Paul W.
