About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice for full-service and preventative maintenance of pathology laboratory equipment at the New York Harbor Healthcare System's Brooklyn VA Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York. The VA seeks contractors capable of providing comprehensive preventative and corrective maintenance services for approximately 10 laboratory instruments manufactured by companies such as Sakura Finetek, Leica, Avantik Biogroup, and BD. The NAICS code for this requirement is 811210 (Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance), and the PSC code is J066. This Sources Sought Notice is intended solely for market research purposes to identify potential sources for a future Request for Quotes (RFQ); no contract award will be made based on responses to this notice. Interested contractors must submit a capability statement and detailed information to Tracy M. Vega at Tracy.Vega@va.gov by the November 14, 2025 deadline at 12:00 PM Eastern Time, including their NAICS code, size status, and relevant Federal Supply Schedule capabilities.

The VA has not designated this procurement for any specific set-aside category; however, the government is conducting market research to determine the viability of setting aside the contract to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) or Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB). The base performance period runs from February 1, 2026 to January 31, 2027, with the potential for option periods extending the contract duration. Cursory market research has identified one small business as a potential source, and the VA is actively seeking additional qualified contractors to expand the competitive pool. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this Sources Sought Notice, as the procurement is in the pre-solicitation phase. The government intends to use information gathered from this notice to develop the formal RFQ and to assess whether the requirement can be appropriately competed within a specific socio-economic category.
