About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs is conducting a sole-source procurement for a MEI System 4D Optical Tracer with installation and training, with responses due by 12:00 PM EST on September 14, 2026. The justification for sole source is based on direct interoperability requirements with the facility's existing proprietary MEI System edgers; comprehensive market research across multiple databases and alternative manufacturers (HOYA, National Optronics, Essilor) yielded no compliant domestic alternatives. A prior Sources Sought Notice (May 14–25, 2026) attracted only one vendor response from an SDVOSB that lacked authorization to distribute MEI System products.
The procurement covers one 4D Trace Perfect Fit system, three 4D Enabling units for remote activation and configuration, one Hoya GT-7000 Tracer, and complete installation and training. Equipment will be delivered to the Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, with ongoing operations at the VA VISN 10/12 Optical Lab. This is a firm-fixed-price acquisition under FAR 12.102(a) and does not exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold of $350,000. The OEM is MEI System Inc., 200 Pierce Rd., Itasca, Illinois 60143. Remote vendor support at no additional cost is required for installation and machine operation inquiries. Interested vendors must submit responses demonstrating competitive advantages to LouAnn Gilliland (louann.gilliland@va.gov). NAICS 339115; PSC 6540.
