The Department of Veterans Affairs, through Network Contracting Office 23, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed price contract to Fidelis Sustainability Distribution, LLC for patient lift equipment at the Iowa City Health Care System in Iowa City, Iowa. This action is justified under FAR 6.302-1, which permits non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source exists and no other supplies or services can satisfy the requirement. The equipment must be fully compatible with the existing Fidelis ceiling rail systems already installed at the facility, and any vendor seeking to be considered must provide documented proof that their lifts can integrate without voiding warranties or compromising safety features. The North American Industry Classification System code is 339113 and the service code is 6515. Although this notice is not a solicitation, interested parties may submit capability statements to [email hidden] no later than ten calendar days after the June 3, 2026 publication date. The Government will review all submissions solely to determine whether to proceed with a competitive process, but it currently affirms that Fidelis is the only capable vendor. No pricing details, line items, or contract value are provided, as this is a pre-solicitation notice. The place of performance is specified as Iowa City, IA, while the contracting office is located in Sioux Falls, SD. No formal evaluation factors, inspection criteria, packaging requirements, or invoicing instructions are included, as the acquisition is not being competed. The Contracting Officer, Curt LaRose, is the sole point of contact for submissions and inquiries.
