6505--Request for Information (RFI) - Specialty – PPV 2028 Amendment 0002 to Extend Response Date from Nov. 16, 2026 to Nov. 30, 2026 at 11AM CT
Solicitation # 36E79727Q0001
The Department of Veterans Affairs, through the OALC Enterprise Procurement Office, has issued a Request for Information regarding the Pharmaceutical Prime Vendor (PPV) 2028 program. The agency is seeking market research to determine the feasibility of integrating Limited Distribution and Closed Distribution Products (CDP) into the PPV scope. These specialty medications are typically high-cost, low-volume items with restricted distribution channels that often require specific clinical justifications, manufacturer-mandated registrations, and specialized safety monitoring. The primary objective is to establish a seamless ordering platform where all Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) items, including those that bypass the physical possession of the prime vendor, are visible and orderable with accurate invoicing and delivery tracking for VA medical centers nationwide. The government is soliciting detailed feedback from industry partners on their ability to coordinate fulfillment with manufacturer-designated specialty distributors and their capacity to provide consistent reporting and reconciliation for these transactions. Potential respondents must provide their company name, point of contact information, UEI, CAGE code, and any applicable socioeconomic designations. Submissions are due by 11 AM Central on November 16, 2026, via email to Karen Ade. This notice is strictly for market research purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or a commitment by the government to award a contract.
