Mobile Carts, Keyboards, and Mice

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 seeks 77 mobile laptop carts, 77 keyboards, and 77 mice for the Kansas City VA Medical Center, with proposals due September 14, 2026. This is a total small business set-aside.

Place of performance is Kansas City, Missouri. Carts must accommodate 14-inch Government-furnished laptops (Dell, HP, and Lenovo models), feature adjustable worksurface heights not exceeding 20 inches wide by 28 inches deep, weigh no more than 55 pounds (cart only, excluding accessories), include secure locking mechanisms for laptop storage, and provide designated workspace for wireless BCMA scanners with base and wired external PIV card readers. All equipment must withstand hospital-grade cleaning and disinfection. Keyboards and mice must use wired USB connections and employ hospital-grade materials rated for multiple daily cleanings. Delivery is firm fixed-price FOB Destination within 30 days after award.

Offerors must be registered and verified in SAM.gov and the SBA Small Business Search at time of submission and award; unverified firms are non-responsive. Offerors must submit an OEM authorized distributor letter and may source keyboards and mice separately from the cart manufacturer. Any manufacturer is acceptable if all salient characteristics are met. Internal power strips must be UL 1363A approved; external power cords must be UL 1363A or UL 60601 certified. Drawers are not required initially but the cart must have structural capability for future expansion. Evaluation weighs technical capability and past performance significantly more heavily than price; the Government considers all past performance including that of the proposed OEM and key personnel. Amendment No. 0001 issued September 10 provides answers to 14 submitted questions and does not extend the deadline.
