Guldmann Ceiling Patient Lift and Gait Lift

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is soliciting proposals for Guldmann Ceiling Patient Lifts and Gait Lift systems, including accessories, hardware, and installation services for the Rolla Community-Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC). This procurement is being conducted under a simplified acquisition procedure using the Request for Quote (RFQ) method with full and open competition. The VA requires nine ceiling-mounted motorized patient lift systems with varying specifications, including seven standard GH3+ lifts with 825-pound safe working load capacity, one gait-training track system, one extended rail system, and associated structural hardware and installation services. Evaluation will be based on technical capability, past performance demonstrating experience with Guldmann ceiling lifts within the last three years, and price. Contractors must be authorized distributors of Guldmann equipment and submit proof of authorization with their quote. The offer due date is March 3, 2026 at 11:00 AM Central Standard Time.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is unrestricted. The estimated acquisition value exceeds the micro-purchase threshold but does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold of $350,000, indicating a contract value in the range of $25,000 to $350,000. The contractor must deliver all equipment items within 30 days after receipt of order to the warehouse at Harry S. Truman Memorial Veterans Hospital in Columbia, Missouri, with installation and hardware delivery to be completed at the Rolla CBOC location. The contract includes requirements for white-glove installation, a two-year manufacturer's warranty with free replacement and return shipping, detailed packing slips with serial numbers, shop drawings prior to installation, and monthly progress reports to the Contracting Officer. The place of performance is Columbia, Missouri 65201. No incumbent contractor is identified in the solicitation documents, as this represents a new procurement requirement for the recently designed Rolla CBOC facility seeking to maintain compatibility with existing Columbia VAMC systems.
