About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 has published a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source contract to Olympus America, Inc. for an Evis X1 Video System. The medical equipment will be deployed at the Kansas City VA Medical Center and falls under NAICS code 339112 for Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing with a size standard of 1000 employees. The VA is proceeding under the authority of 41 U.S.C 253(c)(1), which allows sole source procurement when only one responsible source is capable of providing the required proprietary equipment. The contracting opportunity is classified under PSC code 6515 for Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies.

The primary purpose of this notice is to provide other potential contractors an opportunity to demonstrate their capability to provide equivalent medical video system equipment before the VA finalizes its sole source award to Olympus. Interested parties must submit capabilities statements via email to jessica.barton1@va.gov no later than August 12, 2025, at 12:00 pm Central Time. Contractors seeking to participate must be able to provide equipment equivalent to the Olympus Evis X1 Video System and meet the technical requirements for medical video systems used in VA healthcare facilities. The VA retains complete discretion to review submitted capabilities statements and determine whether to proceed with a competitive procurement process. If no viable alternative sources are identified by the deadline, the VA will proceed with exclusive negotiations with Olympus America, Inc. for the sole source contract award.
