The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is seeking a weight-based inventory management system for the Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center in Wichita, Kansas. The solicitation targets a free-standing inventory management solution that will be implemented across three Community Based Outpatient Clinics located in Dodge City, Hays, and Parsons, Kansas. The proposed system must provide real-time inventory visibility, interface with existing VA software (GIP), and enable comprehensive tracking and reporting of inventory levels for medical, surgical, prosthetics, and environmental management services. Potential vendors are required to submit a detailed response by 10:00 am CST on April 21, 2025, which must include company information, a comprehensive capability statement, and documentation addressing the system's technical requirements. The evaluation will likely focus on vendors' ability to meet the system's complex technical specifications, including automated reordering, multi-user permissions, and comprehensive inventory tracking capabilities.

There are no specific set-aside designations for this contract opportunity, which suggests it is open to a broad range of potential vendors in the Packaging Machinery Manufacturing (NAICS 333993) and Scales and Balances (PSC 6670) categories. The contract requires full system installation and setup within 180 days of award, with the contractor expected to provide a one-year equipment replacement warranty, continuous remote monitoring, and on-site staff training. While a specific award value is not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the inventory management system and the multi-site implementation suggest a potentially significant contract investment. The solicitation is currently in a market research phase and does not guarantee contract award. Vendors will need to demonstrate robust technical capabilities, including system integration, real-time tracking, automated reordering, and comprehensive reporting functionalities to be considered competitive for this opportunity.
