About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 21 awarded a $4.5 million IDIQ bridge contract to Apria Healthcare LLC for home oxygen supplies and services to VA Northern California Health Care System beneficiaries, effective October 1, 2026.
The contract runs for twelve months (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) with one optional six-month extension through September 30, 2028. The award was made on a sole-source basis under FAR 12.201-1 Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items, justified on the basis that Apria is the only responsible source capable of satisfying agency requirements. Apria currently performs under the expiring contract 36C26124D0057 and is positioned to provide uninterrupted service with comprehensive operational familiarity including physician coordination, equipment exchange, in-home setup, and patient education. The interim bridge contract ensures service continuity while the VA develops a competitive five-year IDIQ contract package following a prior protest of a long-term solicitation. Scope includes all materials, labor, supervision, transportation, patient education, safety management, and infection control. Pricing reflects adjustments for inflation and cost increases including fuel and COVID-related expenses, benchmarked against similar contracts.
