About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 seeks certification and testing services for laboratory equipment at the Portland VA Health Care System, with quotes due September 4, 2026, at 5:00 PM PDT. The procurement is set-aside 100 percent for SBA-certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, limiting competition to that pool.

Place of performance is Portland, Oregon, with services extending to subordinate Vancouver, Washington campus locations. The contractor must hold NSF-49 accreditation and demonstrate minimum 18 months of biological safety cabinet testing experience. The government will not accept alternative industry accreditations such as CETA/CNBT or NEBB in lieu of NSF-49. Services include semi-annual and monthly viable sampling (bacterial and fungal testing), USP viable counts testing for air and surface samples, balancing and certification of biological safety cabinets, chemical fume hoods, laminar flow clean benches, animal transfer stations, positive flow isolators, and clean rooms. Pharmacy-related equipment is subject to USP 797/800 semi-annual testing requirements. The contractor must maintain a maximum 24-hour response time for repairs, comply with Federal and State OSHA regulations, and limit subcontracting to 50 percent for services. The base contract period runs September 15, 2026, through September 14, 2027, with four one-year option periods extending through September 14, 2031. Estimated contract value is $19 million. The NAICS code is 541380, Testing Laboratories and Services; PSC code is H266. Evaluation weighs technical capability, past performance, and price. Amendment 0002 (September 1) clarified technical scope regarding pharmacy locations, USP testing applicability, viable sample counts, and accreditation requirements. Contractors must acknowledge Amendment 0001 (August 27) and Amendment 0002 as part of quote submission. Quotes should be submitted to Danielle Carrico at the NCO 20 Network Contracting Office in Vancouver, Washington. Monthly invoicing and electronic funds transfer within NET 30 terms are required.
