J065--TruDi Equipment Service | New Base+4 | Start: 12/1/25

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Network Contracting Office 10 in Cincinnati, Ohio has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source, Firm-Fixed Price Contract for TruDi Navigation Service Agreement equipment services. The contract will be awarded to Integra Life Sciences Corporation, located at 1100 Campus Road, Princeton, New Jersey, and will support the Dayton VA Medical Center. This procurement falls under the Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance NAICS category and specifically covers maintenance, repair, and rebuild of medical equipment and supplies. The acquisition follows FAR Subpart 13.2 procedures and satisfies the publication requirements for proposed contract actions. The contract includes a new base period plus four option years with a planned start date of December 1, 2025.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide advance notification of the government's intent to negotiate directly with Integra Life Sciences Corporation without conducting a competitive procurement process. Interested contractors may submit capabilities statements or quotations for consideration by September 23, 2025, at 8:00 AM Eastern Time to Contracting Officer Christopher Council via email. However, the government emphasizes that this notice is not a request for quote and no formal solicitation will be issued. All contractors submitting responses must do so at their own expense, as the government will not reimburse any costs associated with preparing capabilities statements or quotations. While the notice indicates a sole source intent, the inclusion of provisions allowing other contractors to submit capabilities demonstrates the government's commitment to market research and ensuring the proposed approach represents the best value for the agency.
