About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Network Contracting Office 21, issued a sole-source Special Notice on April 7, 2026, announcing its intent to award a firm-fixed-price maintenance support contract for BioMerieux laboratory equipment and software at VA Palo Alto Healthcare System, with responses due by April 10, 2026, at 4:00 PM Pacific Time.
The contract addresses pathology and laboratory service operations and covers the base period plus four option years, with performance estimated from August 9, 2026, through August 8, 2031. The award is limited to BioMerieux as the sole source because the OEM's technicians hold exclusive certification and authorization to install, maintain, and service the equipment, and BioMerieux warrants work only when completed by these certified technicians. The intended award date is May 20, 2026.
Any firm believing it can meet the government's requirement may notify the Contracting Officer within three calendar days of publication via email to John Waldrip at john.waldrip@va.gov. Respondents must identify their business size and ownership status—large, small, small-disadvantaged, 8(a), or woman-owned—and U.S. or foreign ownership. The government will not reimburse information submitted in response, and this notice does not constitute a competitive solicitation or obligation to acquire services.
