The Defense Health Agency, Western Markets Contracting Division, issued this Special Notice on April 1, 2026, announcing its intent to award a noncompetitive, firm-fixed-priced commercial purchase order to Varian Medical Systems, Inc. for a single linear accelerator with one year of full-service support. The acquisition will be conducted under the simplified acquisition authority of FAR 13.106-1(b), based on a sole-source determination that only Varian Medical Systems is capable of meeting the Government's requirement. The equipment will be deployed at Naval Medical Center San Diego, California, with a period of performance from April 20, 2026 through April 19, 2027. This synopsis is issued to provide interested parties an opportunity to identify their capabilities and challenge the noncompetitive award determination. The linear accelerator, identified by serial number H291014, falls under Product Service Code J065 (maintenance and repair of medical equipment) and NAICS Code 811210 (electronic and precision equipment repair and maintenance).

Interested contractors must submit written responses via email to Dania Suazo at dania.suazo.civ@health.mil no later than 4:00 PM PDT on April 13, 2026, identifying their capability to meet the requirement. All responding vendors must maintain active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) with valid Unique Entity ID and CAGE codes prior to submission. Telephone responses and requests will not be accepted, and only written email submissions will be considered. The Government retains sole discretion to determine whether to compete the requirement based on responses received to this notice. While this is not a formal request for quotes, capable vendors who wish to challenge the sole-source award or demonstrate alternative capabilities are encouraged to respond within the specified timeframe.
