6525--JUN 2026 Equipment Only Consolidation

Solicitation 36A79726Q0011 is a HUBZone small business set-aside for the JUN 2026 Equipment Only Consolidation, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs National Acquisition Center. This procurement, conducted under FAR 16.505, is restricted to current contract holders with the VA National Acquisition Center or the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support. The scope involves the acquisition of High Tech Medical Equipment under FSC Class 6525, including items such as XR US, XR MAMMO, and NM BONE DEN across various VA healthcare networks and stations. Offers are due by October 14, 2026, with a goal to award delivery orders by February 16, 2027. Award decisions will be based on best value, where non-price factors—specifically the availability of required features and the availability of service—are considered significantly more important than price. Technical evaluations will assess equipment functionality, local and virtual technical support, repair parts availability, and vendor responsiveness within the VISN. Strict cybersecurity and compliance standards are mandated, including FIPS 140-2 certification and adherence to VA Directive 6550 Appendix A for medical device procurement. Vendors must submit detailed configuration offers, compliance matrices, and technical documentation via a designated Box portal, ensuring all equipment meets current security standards and does not utilize unsupported operating systems without a formal support plan.
