This is an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract for the procurement of frozen intravenous antibiotics under the Department of Veterans Affairs, awarded to support the Loma Linda VA Health Care System. The contract has a total estimated value of $1,978,808.87 over a five-year period, including a one-year base period and four optional years, with performance extending from August 20, 2026, through August 19, 2031. Although no funding is obligated at award and all line-item pricing is listed as $0.00, the contract specifies six clinical line items for various frozen premix antibiotics, including cefazolin, cefepime, oxacillin, and ceftriaxone, each packaged in Galaxy Plastic Containers to maintain product integrity during transit. Delivery must occur to the VA Loma Linda Healthcare System with strict packaging and labeling requirements, including marking the contract number on all shipments and ensuring a minimum six-month shelf life at time of delivery. All substances must remain in a frozen state during transport and conform to FDA regulations and California State Board of Pharmacy licensing standards. The contract is governed by a firm-fixed-price structure and follows a trade-off source selection process, prioritizing technical capability and past performance over price, though all factors are considered in determining the most advantageous offer. Invoicing is mandated through the Tungsten Network Portal, with payments processed via Electronic Funds Transfer using SAM data, and no WAWF or IPP systems are utilized. The contract includes numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses addressing supply chain security, whistleblower protections, labor standards, equal opportunity, Buy American restrictions, trafficking in persons, privacy training, and prohibitions on ByteDance-covered applications and certain Chinese telecom equipment. Subcontracting requirements are extensive, with flow-down obligations for ethical conduct, small business utilization, payment timing to small subcontractors, and compliance with federal hiring and wage laws. The contractor must also adhere to VA-specific regulations regarding packaging, marking, and delivery, and is subject to Government inspection and acceptance at the delivery point. Offerors must certify their size status, small business affiliation, absence of debarred affiliations, and compliance with federal tax and criminal liability requirements, with mandatory disclosures for any involvement with restricted technologies. The Contracting Officer at the Network Contracting Office 22 in Long Beach, CA, retains full administrative oversight, while the primary point of contact for pre-award inquiries is Hestia Sim.
