About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service (IHS), part of the Department of Health and Human Services, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a contract to QuidelOrtho for analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing services. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334516 and will be conducted using FAR 6.302-1 authority for "Only One Responsible Source" acquisitions. The contract requirement involves providing a Triage MeterPro Instrument along with associated consumables and reagents for two specific healthcare facilities: the Hopi Health Care Center and the Whiteriver PHS Indian Hospital. This notice serves as a formal notification to the contracting community before IHS proceeds with the intended sole-source award. The opportunity is classified under PSC code 6515 for medical and surgical instruments, equipment, and supplies.
The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide other potential contractors an opportunity to demonstrate their capabilities before IHS finalizes the sole-source contract with QuidelOrtho. Interested vendors must submit capability statements by 12:00 PM PST on September 15, 2025, via email to jeremy.steel@ihs.gov, referencing notice number PHX-SS-25-020. To be considered, contractors must be able to provide all requested services, including the specific Triage MeterPro Instrument, consumables, and reagents for both designated healthcare facilities. The government reserves complete discretion in determining whether to proceed with competitive procurement based on responses received, and submission of capability statements does not guarantee contract award or acknowledgment from the agency. This notice represents a standard pre-award notification process that allows IHS to assess whether alternative sources exist before proceeding with the intended sole-source acquisition.
