About this opportunity

VA Philadelphia Medical Center (Network Contracting Office 4) intends to sole source one UVsmart D60 ultraviolet probe sterilizing unit to Advanced Sterilization Products Services Inc., with responses due August 19, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. EST. The procurement is for high-level disinfection of transesophageal echocardiography probe external surfaces using UV-C light technology without chemical disinfectants. The sole-source justification rests on facility constraints: the medical center experiences water intrusion damage to probes and unacceptable plumbing conditions in the reprocessing room requiring up to four years of construction remediation. Alternative reprocessing units from other vendors require full utility hookups incompatible with current infrastructure and would reduce processing throughput by eliminating one existing Medivator unit; the UV disinfection capability addresses water damage while maintaining capacity. A Sources Sought Notice posted on SAM.gov from July 10–24, 2026, received one response from the equipment manufacturer. The contracting officer approved the justification on July 30, 2026.

The unit must be chemical-free with a disinfection cycle of 120 seconds or less, at least 8 UV-C lamps with protective covers, touch screen, RFID reader, barcode scanner, audible and visual alarms, and integrated printer. External dimensions cannot exceed 34 inches wide by 19 inches deep by 80 inches high; the disinfection chamber cannot exceed 30 inches wide by 8 inches deep by 69 inches high. The equipment must operate on standard 110/120 VAC power without network connectivity and carry at least a one-year warranty. A firm-fixed-price contract with no option years is anticipated. NAICS 339112; PSC 6515.
