6515--Radiology Addition CT Injection System

The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a firm-fixed-price contract award under a total service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) set-aside for the procurement of a Medrad Stellant Flex CT Injection System to replace aging equipment within the Radiology Department at the Gulf Coast Veterans Healthcare System in Biloxi, Mississippi. The solicitation, identified by number 36C25626Q0612, is governed by the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, meaning the award will go to the offeror whose proposal meets all minimum technical requirements at the lowest price. The system must support dual-syringe configuration with programmable flow rates from 0.1 to 10 mL/sec and adjustable volumes up to syringe capacity, ensuring seamless integration across multiple CT rooms and strict compliance with FDA regulations, IEC 60601-1, and ISO 13485 standards. Delivery and installation are required at the designated VA facility, and all items must be packaged and marked according to FAR 852.247-73, including proper identification via CAGE code and manufacturer part numbers. All offerors must be certified SDVOSBs and comply with extensive VA-specific clauses including personnel vetting under VAAR 852.204-72, which mandates adherence to Tier 1–4 risk levels for handling sensitive health and personal data, and PIV identity verification under VAAR 852.204-70. Key personnel must be identified and approved, with substitution requiring prior government consent. Subcontracting is strictly limited under VAAR 852.219-76 to ensure performance remains with the SDVOSB prime. All proposals must be submitted electronically by May 22, 2026, to the designated contracting officer, Angela Kennedy, via email using the SF 1449 form. Invoicing must be conducted exclusively through the VA Financial Services Center e-Invoice Portal, and acceptance occurs upon delivery and inspection at the Biloxi site. The contract includes no options, and the government retains right to reject non-conforming goods under VAAR 852.246-71. No pricing data is yet available, as this is a pre-award solicitation, and all unit costs remain to be determined by responsive offerors.
