About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service's Northern Navajo Medical Center is seeking qualified contractors to furnish and install healthcare process quality water treatment systems for its Sterile Processing Department and Decontamination Room operations in Shiprock, New Mexico. This market research initiative is conducted under FAR 10.001 to identify prospective sources capable of designing and installing water softening, reverse osmosis, nano-filtration, ultraviolet disinfection, storage tanks, pumps, and associated piping and controls that comply with ANSI/AAMI Standard 108:2023 specifications for medical device processing water quality. The primary objective is to increase endoscope processing capacity from five to sixteen units per day while ensuring both utility water and critical water availability for existing washer equipment and contingency operations. Prospective contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) at the time of offer submission and should demonstrate expertise in the NAICS category 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors) with a small business size standard of $19.0 million. This pre-solicitation notice was posted on February 10, 2026, and interested parties should note that submission of information in response to this market survey is voluntary and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee of future contracting opportunities.
The procurement does not utilize any set-aside designation for small businesses, minority-owned enterprises, or other protected categories, though the government is actively seeking information about Indian-owned economic enterprises to inform its acquisition strategy. The installation and upgrade project is scheduled to commence on November 1, 2025, and conclude on February 27, 2026, with quarterly preventive maintenance services extending from April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2031, plus four optional renewal years, representing a comprehensive five-year maintenance commitment. Specific deliverable components include a G2-4 HE filtration system with 500-gallon storage tank for the mobile Sterile Processing Department, a G1-2F filtration system with two 300-gallon storage tanks and associated equipment for the decontamination room, a new CSM-300-3NC water softener with supporting components, and complete plumbing and installation labor. The contractor must conduct pre-construction and infection control risk assessments, coordinate project scheduling with the Sterile Processing Department Supervisor, arrange facility shutdowns as necessary, and provide skilled personnel with one-year warranty coverage on all equipment and labor. No specific budget value or award amount is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as this market research phase is designed to inform the government's contracting strategy prior to formal solicitation release.
