About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 has awarded contract 36C25026C0142 to Bronson Methodist Hospital for Battle Creek Reference Lab Testing Services on a sole-source basis, with an award amount of $65,402.00 and an award date of July 30, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 6.302-5 (authorized or required by statute). The rationale rests on VHA Urgent Care Directive 1101.13(1), which mandates a one-hour turnaround time from sample collection to test results for STAT testing. Market research—including AbilityOne Services List review, GSA eLibrary search under NAICS Code 621511, SBA DSBS search, and SAM.gov RFI posting seeking capability statements from businesses of all sizes—yielded zero viable alternatives. Only two local laboratories, Bronson Methodist Hospital and Bronson Battle Creek Hospital, are physically positioned to meet this time-sensitive requirement. The contract covers STAT lab testing at Battle Creek VA Medical Center and Wyoming CBOC for urgent testing services in the event of instrument or power failures and in-house testing gaps. The contract is structured as a base plus four option years. Place of performance is Kalamazoo, Michigan (Bronson Methodist Hospital, 301 John Street). The Network Contracting Office 10, located in Independence, Ohio, processed the acquisition under FAR 13.106-1 simplified acquisition procedures. The Contracting Officer is Courtney Seevers (Courtney.Seevers@va.gov).
