Q301--Decipher Prostate Testing for the John D. Dingell VA Medical Center in Detroit, MI

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Network 10 Contracting Office, is conducting a Sources Sought Notice to identify potential vendors capable of providing Decipher Prostate Testing services for the John D. Dingell VA Medical Center in Detroit, Michigan. This market survey is designed to determine whether responsible sources exist and to assess the competitive landscape prior to formal solicitation. Prospective offerors must submit responses by October 21, 2025, at 12:00 PM EST, with all inquiries directed to Contracting Officer Cierra S. Joshua at Cierra.Joshua@va.gov. Required submission information includes business name, GSA contract number (if applicable), point of contact details, SAM UEID number, NAICS code, business size classification, and business type designation. It is important to note that this is a Sources Sought Notice only and does not constitute a formal request for proposals; therefore, no reimbursement will be made for response preparation costs. The evaluation will focus on identifying sources across all business categories to determine potential set-aside opportunities.

This procurement has no set-aside designation at this time, and no incumbent contractor is identified in the notice. The proposed contract is classified under NAICS Code 621511 (Medical Laboratories) with a size standard of $41.5 million, and the contract period will span 12 months from the award date plus four optional 12-month renewal periods, providing a potential total performance period of five years. While no specific award value is stated in the Sources Sought Notice, the $41.5 million size standard provides an indication of the contract's potential magnitude. All businesses eligible to provide these laboratory testing services are encouraged to respond, including small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned enterprises, veteran-owned businesses, 8(a) certified firms, HUB Zone businesses, women-owned businesses, and other designated categories. The VA intends to use the responses received to evaluate the market and determine whether to establish set-asides for specific business categories in the subsequent formal solicitation.
