The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Network Contracting Office 22 in Gilbert, Arizona, is seeking to award an Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for blood bank reagents for manual testing to support VISN 22 facilities. The procurement, identified under NAICS code 325413 and titled “6550—Blood Type IVD Reagents,” is unrestricted and requires offerors to provide pricing for 17 specific reagent items—including ABO back-typing cells, complement and IgG check cells, anti-sera, elution kits, and antibody identification panels of at least 30 unique donor cells—for a base period beginning September 1, 2026, and including four one-year option periods, totaling up to five years of performance. All reagents must be FDA-approved, AABB and CAP accredited, and validated by the VISN 22 PALMS program, with no equipment, instrumentation, or services included in the scope. Delivery is to be made FOB destination to multiple VA sites, and packaging must comply with carrier regulations to ensure safe transport and acceptance. The award will be made on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, where technical acceptability, funding availability, and responsibility serve as mandatory pass/fail gates, and price constitutes 100% of the evaluation. Offerors must submit proposals by email to the Contract Specialist by 7:00 AM PDT on July 22, 2026, using PDF or Word formats, complete with a cover sheet, SF-1449, and a five-year pricing schedule in Attachment A, with proprietary formats permitted if they match the required data. Payment will be processed through the VA Financial Services Center using third-party invoicing via the Tungsten Network portal, with monthly billing as needed. Contractors must comply with numerous FAR and VAAR clauses including those on whistleblower rights, security prohibitions, DEI discrimination, contract extensions (up to six months total), and commercial advertising, and must maintain representations through SAM.gov. Additionally, the contract mandates adherence to federal statutes concerning appropriated funds, labor standards, anti-kickback provisions, procurement integrity, and the Fly America Act.
