STERIS Surgical Instruments for Vascular Sets

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, specifically Veterans Integrated Service Network 7, is seeking quotations for STERIS Surgical Instruments for Vascular Sets through a brand name only solicitation. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 339112 for Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing and will focus on acquiring 63 specific surgical instruments including vascular clamps, retractors, forceps, scissors, and dilators. This is a commercial item procurement using streamlined procedures, with quotes being requested directly without a separate written solicitation document. The evaluation will be conducted on a lowest-priced, technically acceptable basis, meaning vendors must submit their best terms and pricing for the specified STERIS instruments. The solicitation response deadline is March 19, 2025, at 8:00 AM EST, with quotes to be submitted via email to Contract Specialist Ashley Stewart.

The solicitation does not utilize a specific small business set-aside, though the NAICS code has a small business size standard of 750 employees. Market research identified only one Original Equipment Manufacturer (STERIS Corporation) and one authorized small business distributor (Beacon Point Associates, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business). The estimated procurement value is $25,340.96 for two vascular sets, which will be delivered to the William Jennings Bryan Dorn VA Medical Center in Columbia, SC. The government reserves the right to issue purchase orders for any or all items, potentially in quantities less than those quoted. Quotations must include detailed product information, pricing, warranty terms, and past performance references, with the intention of standardizing and replacing existing operating room inventory.
