AI Contract Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs in Hampton, VA plans to award a firm fixed price, sole source indefinite delivery contract to Hologic, Inc. for supplies and services supporting the Panther Fusion system. This procurement involves a commercial item and will be conducted under FAR 16, with an exception to full and open competition allowed under FAR 6.003 due to the unique nature of the firmware in the Panther system, which is essential for running the Aptima Assays and is exclusively available from Hologic. The system is commercially available and continues to meet the requirements, but the original equipment manufacturer maintains exclusive distribution and support capabilities. This notice is an intent to sole source and does not constitute a request for competitive quotes. However, vendors interested in demonstrating capabilities to perform this work may submit a narrative for future consideration by the deadline of August 18, 2021. The government retains discretion to decide whether to open the requirement to competition based on any responses received. The contracting office managing this procurement is the Network Contracting Office 6 (36C246) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, with Kim Pauley serving as the contract specialist contact.
