AI Contract Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Regional Procurement Office East, is seeking market information for the procurement of one Steam Sterilizer and one Laboratory Glassware Washer to be installed at the Cincinnati VA Medical Center in Ohio, supporting a BioSafety Level II Veterinarian Medical Unit. This solicitation, numbered 36C24E26Q0075 and posted on July 23, 2026, with a response deadline of August 5, 2026, is classified as a Sources Sought Notice under NAICS code 339112, indicating it is a pre-solicitation market research effort rather than a formal request for proposals. The equipment must meet stringent technical specifications, including a sterilizer with an internal chamber of at least 20”x20”x38”, capable of gravity, liquid, pre-vacuum, and isothermal cycles up to 285°F, featuring a touchscreen interface with printing and internal exhaust, and a glassware washer with an internal chamber of at least 25”W x 23”H x 24”L operating within a temperature range of 180–248°F. Both units must be fully assembled, plug-and-play, require no facility modifications, and come with a mandatory one-year warranty and 48-hour on-site service response time. Delivery and installation must occur no later than June 1, 2027, at the Cincinnati VA Medical Center’s Research Dock, with acceptance contingent upon compliance with VHA and AAALAC standards. The contract is expected to be awarded as a Firm-Fixed-Price arrangement, and while no pricing data is currently available as this is a sources-sought notice, payment will be processed electronically via the OB-10 (Tungsten Network) portal. Response submissions are required via email to the Contracting Specialist JD Cooley, who also serves as the primary point of contact and performs both contracting andCOR functions. Offerors must include their UEI, company details, and contact information, and while socioeconomic certifications and representations are required in the response format, none have been submitted yet. The VA has not specified FOB terms, packaging, preservation, or labeling standards beyond ensuring the equipment arrives ready for immediate installation. No key personnel, security clearances, or contract options are required, and the solicitation excludes the use of WAWF or IPP for invoicing.
