About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Connecticut Healthcare System, part of Veterans Integrated Service Network 1, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to sole source a contract for mobile sterile processing (SPS) services. The procurement is specifically for a mobile sterile processing unit to be located at the West Haven VA Medical Center, continuing services currently provided under an existing contract. The VA plans to negotiate directly with STERIS Corporation, located in Mentor, OH, under the statutory authority of FAR 13.5 for Simplified Procedures for Commercial Items. The procurement falls under NAICS code 532490 for equipment rental and is classified as a W065 category for medical equipment leasing. The VA asserts that STERIS is the only responsible source capable of meeting their unique requirements for continuous sterile processing services.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to continue critical sterile processing services during facility renovations at the West Haven VA Medical Center, with STERIS providing a mobile trailer unit that meets specific infrastructure and operational needs. Contractors interested in challenging the sole source determination must submit clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. All responses must be emailed to Divianna Mathurin (divianna.mathurin@va.gov) no later than 10:00 AM EST on March 10, 2025, with no telephonic inquiries accepted. The contract is structured with a base year from 03/10/2025 to 03/09/2026 and includes four potential one-year option periods. Eligibility is effectively limited, as the VA has determined that only STERIS can successfully meet their specialized requirements without costly modifications or potential service disruptions.
