N049--MBM - Relocate Scanner to new site

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is conducting market research to identify potential vendors capable of relocating an OPEX AS7200 and Model 72 Scanner from Dublin, GA to a new site in Murfreesboro, TN. The Request for Information (RFI) seeks vendors with OPEX certified equipment technicians who can completely disassemble the scanner, prepare it for shipment, transport it, and then reassemble the equipment to full operational status at the new location. Vendors interested in responding must submit documentation including past performance records for similar services within the past 3 years, manufacturer certifications, company point of contact information, SAM Unique ID number, and a capability statement. The market research is specifically focused on finding qualified sources with expertise in handling and relocating specialized scanning equipment. Responses are due by January 17, 2025, at 3:00 PM CST, and should be emailed directly to Contracting Officer Larry Zaritz.

This pre-solicitation notice does not have a specific set-aside designation and is not currently intended to result in an immediate contract award. The opportunity falls under NAICS Category 811310 for Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with a Product Service Code (PSC) of N049 for Equipment Installation and Maintenance. No specific budget range or award value is mentioned in the documentation. The scope of work is narrowly defined as a one-time equipment relocation service, with a clear geographical movement from Dublin, GA to Murfreesboro, TN. Vendors will be evaluated based on their demonstrated technical capability to handle OPEX equipment, their certification status, and previous experience with similar complex equipment relocation projects.
