66--ArcCHECK 4D Isotropic Arc Delivery QA Cylindrical Detector Array: Intent to Sole Source Update location of delivery

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Network Contracting Office 12 Great Lakes Acquisition Center, plans to award a sole source contract to Sun Nuclear Corporation for the procurement of Quality Assurance Software and Equipment specifically designed for a Radiotherapy 4D Measurement Array. This equipment is intended for use at the Edward Hines, Jr. VA Hospital in Hines, Illinois. The procurement will proceed under Simplified Acquisition Procedures as outlined in 41 U.S.C. 1901 and FAR 13, allowing for a streamlined acquisition process without a competitive solicitation. While this is a notice of intent rather than a formal request for proposals, other interested parties with the necessary capability may express interest by responding no later than September 17, 2019, at 2:00 p.m. CDT, though the government retains discretion on whether to open the procurement to competition. This acquisition involves the specific product identified as the ArcCHECK 4D Isotropic Arc Delivery QA Cylindrical Detector Array and includes an update to the delivery location details. The contract is associated with NAICS code 334519, indicating a focus on measuring and controlling devices manufacturing. The administering office is based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This intended sole source approach is designed to meet the unique technical requirements of the VA hospital’s radiotherapy quality assurance needs, with any responses received during the notice period considered primarily to determine if competitive procurement is warranted. No formal solicitation document has been issued at this time.
