About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 has awarded contract 36C25526P0284 to Steris Corporation on a sole-source basis for maintenance of Steris sterilizers at the VA St. Louis Medical Center, with a base year price of $194,319.35 and four option years totaling $1,073,741.07 through August 31, 2031.
The justification cites RFO 12.102(b), Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items, and is grounded in the determination that only one responsible source can provide the required services. Maintenance by any vendor other than the manufacturer would void warranties and lack manufacturer authorization or training. Market research conducted May 15–20, 2026 returned zero alternative vendors capable of providing Steris sterilizer maintenance services, including GSA Schedule searches, Supply Chain Master Catalog queries, SBA small-business database searches using NAICS 811210, and a Multiple Award Schedule search. Replacement of the existing sterilizers (purchased between 2012–2022 with 10–20 year life expectancies) would cost an estimated $1.2 million to $2.0 million plus additional expenses for workstations, installation, and training, making continued maintenance more cost-effective.
The base year runs September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027. Place of performance is the VA St. Louis Medical Center, with the Network Contracting Office 15 in Leavenworth, Kansas processing the acquisition. Services include preventative maintenance, corrective repairs, and chamber cleanings for sterilizing equipment used by the Surgical, Sterile Processing, and Pathology & Laboratory departments. Approvals were obtained from the Contracting Officer, Director of Contracting, and VHA Advocate for Competition on June 5, 9, and 16, 2026, respectively.
