Biomedical supplies and products

This contract is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) issued by the Phoenix Area Indian Health Service, under the Department of Health and Human Services, for the procurement of biomedical supplies and products, including digital imaging systems and related accessories, with a five-year performance period spanning from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2031. The solicitation is structured as a simplified acquisition for commercial items under FAR Part 12 and is designated as a total small business set-aside, requiring all offerors to self-certify as small businesses in SAM.gov using their Unique Entity ID, with eligibility for additional socioeconomic programs such as veteran-owned, women-owned, or disadvantaged business status. All proposed items must be new, unused, and compliant with manufacturer warranties and OEM support; deliveries are to be made FOB destination to the Phoenix Indian Medical Center at 4212 North 16th Street, Phoenix, AZ 85016, where the Government will inspect and accept the products upon arrival. The evaluation process prioritizes price reasonableness alongside technical acceptability, delivery reliability, and past performance through PPIRS and FAPIIS, with award made based on best value to the government, allowing for trade-offs between cost and non-price factors rather than using a lowest-price technically acceptable approach. Contract compliance is governed by numerous FAR clauses addressing equal opportunity, labor standards, employment verification, trafficking in persons, electronic funds transfer, electronic information technology accessibility, and privacy training, with specific prohibitions against Kaspersky Lab products and internal confidentiality agreements that restrict employee whistleblowing. Invoicing must be submitted exclusively through the HHS-mandated Invoice Processing Platform (IPP), and no paper or WAWF submissions are permitted. The contract includes multiple option years with fixed quantities for key items, though pricing data is incomplete or missing, making the total contract value indeterminable from available information. Subcontractors must flow down essential clauses related to small business utilization, equal opportunity, and security requirements. No packaging, marking, or preservation standards are specified in the documentation. Technical support is provided by the Phoenix Indian Medical Center’s Engineering Department, with primary point of contact Phillip Lucero and alternate Zachary Navarro, while the contracting officer’s details remain unlisted. Proposals must be submitted electronically via IPP by May 14, 2026, at 5:00 PM EDT, and all respondents must be registered in SAM.gov, with no oral offers or hard copy
