MRI Maintenance

The State of Louisiana is requesting proposals for MRI maintenance services with proposals due August 24, 2026. The scope encompasses preventive maintenance, emergency repair services, parts replacement, and technical support for Magnetic Resonance Imaging equipment operated by state facilities in Vernon Parish.

Emergency service calls require response within 24 hours; routine maintenance is scheduled during regular business hours. Vendors must maintain adequate inventory of replacement parts, employ trained and certified technicians, and carry appropriate insurance coverage. Demonstrable experience with the specific MRI equipment models in use by Louisiana state facilities and references from similar maintenance contracts are required.

The contract term is multi-year with renewal options. The pricing structure includes scheduled preventive maintenance visits, on-call emergency response fees, and parts replacement costs beyond standard coverage. Set-asides may be available for Louisiana-based vendors or minority and women-owned business enterprises (MWBE) under state procurement policies. Questions regarding specific set-aside eligibility should be directed to the issuing body, as the scope of work document does not detail the precise availability or application of these preferences.
