The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Network Contracting Office 2, has issued a sources-sought notice under solicitation number 36C24226Q0671 to identify qualified suppliers capable of providing Police Portable Security Radios, accessories, and installation services for VA Medical Centers in Batavia and Buffalo, New York. This market research action, posted on June 3, 2026, with a response deadline of June 17, 2026, seeks information on commercial availability and capabilities rather than initiating a formal procurement. Respondents must provide a capability statement not exceeding five pages, demonstrate SAM.gov registration, and disclose their size status—including whether they are a small business, veteran-owned, HUBZone, or other socioeconomic category under NAICS code 334111. The government is particularly interested in domestic manufacturers and suppliers who can deliver Motorola APX series radios, specifically the APX NEXT and APX 8500 models, configured with required enhancements such as LTE service via AT&T, AES/DES-XL/DES-OFB encryption, P25 9600 baud trunking, SmartZone Omnilink compatibility, submersible design, fall alert functionality, and multikey software licensing. Technical specifications must be met exactly, and manufacturers offering “equal-to” products must provide clear, compelling, and convincing evidence of equivalence. Responses are to be submitted exclusively via email to the Contracting Officer, Erskine Shoulars, with no fax, phone, or portal submissions accepted. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, pricing data, delivery schedules, or invoicing protocols are bound by this notice. All requested pricing information is for market research only and will not influence award decisions. The notice does not establish a contract, nor does it define a period of performance, FOB terms, or packaging requirements. The government has not assigned a Contracting Officer’s Representative or specified inspection procedures beyond requiring compliance with stated salient characteristics, with acceptance occurring at the Batavia and Buffalo VA Medical Centers upon installation. No funding identifiers, appropriation data, or contract value estimates are provided, as this is a pre-solicitation action intended to inform future acquisition strategy. The VA has emphasized a preference for American-made products but has not yet determined the procurement method, weightings, or selection criteria, which will be developed in a subsequent formal solicitation based on responses received during this market research phase.
