The Department of the Army Medical Command has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole-source contract to Advanced Sterilization Products Services Inc. for maintenance services of an Evotech Chemical Sterilizer and STERRAD 100NX System at Irwin Army Community Hospital in Fort Riley, Kansas. The contract, identified as W81K00-25-P-A058, is scheduled for award on or about April 9, 2025. The procurement is classified under NAICS category 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance. Market research conducted from March 20-27, 2025, confirmed the commercial nature of the requirement and validated the need for a sole-source procurement.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to obtain specialized maintenance services for critical medical sterilization equipment, with a total contract value of $218,473.92 utilizing FY25 funds. The contract will be structured as a fixed-price agreement, awarded under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), which permits sole-source procurement when only one source is reasonably available. Advanced Sterilization Products, classified as a Large Business, is the sole authorized manufacturer and service provider for the specific sterilization equipment. Contractors should note the narrow window between the posted date (April 7, 2025) and the due date (April 9, 2025), indicating an expedited procurement process. The sole-source justification is based on the unique capabilities of Advanced Sterilization Products and the lack of competitive alternatives in the market for this specific equipment maintenance service.
