J065--Intent to Sole Source for AMST for Mobile trailer repair

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 4, through its Regional Procurement Office East, Network Contracting Office 4, has published a Special Notice indicating its intent to award a sole source contract to Advanced Mobility & Shelter Technologies, LLC (AMST) for comprehensive maintenance and repair services of an MRI trailer located at VA Pittsburgh Medical Center Monroeville CBOC. The contract is classified under Product Service Code J065 (Equipment and Supplies—Maintenance and Repair) and NAICS code 532120 (Truck, Utility Trailer, and RV Rental and Leasing). Although the government intends to sole source this procurement, the notice invites written capability statements from any responsible firm that believes it can meet the stated requirements. This Special Notice provides an opportunity for competing vendors to challenge the sole source award decision, contingent upon their ability to demonstrate relevant qualifications and experience.

The primary objective of this procurement is to ensure continuous operational support of the AMST MRI trailer through preventive maintenance and repair services, maintaining a 98 percent uptime requirement over the contract performance period. The contract will be structured as a firm-fixed-price award with a one-year base period and four one-year option periods. Interested contractors must submit written responses by January 26, 2026, at 10:00 AM EST, including their company name, SAM number, address, point of contact information, and business size, along with detailed capability statements demonstrating direct supplier or authorized reseller status. Eligible contractors must be authorized OEM distributors and certified field service engineers with current VA remote access authorization, security clearances, and compliance with all VA credentialing requirements including health and safety certifications. The Statement of Work specifies that the contractor must provide unlimited technical support, maintain response times of 30 minutes for phone support and 4 hours for onsite dispatch, utilize only OEM-approved new parts, and bear all associated costs for parts, labor, travel, and materials.
