Custom Surgical Procedure Packs

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Pittsburgh VA Medical Center, is conducting market research via a Sources Sought notice to identify qualified vendors for an IDIQ contract to provide 28 distinct custom surgical procedure packs. The scope includes various specialized kits such as Total Hip, Total Knee, VA Dialysis, TAVR, Vascular, and Universal packs. The government is seeking information on vendor capabilities, business size, and functionally equivalent alternatives to specific brand names to expand competition and reduce costs. All manufacturing facilities must be registered and in good standing with the Food and Drug Administration, and contractors must ensure an uninterrupted supply based on anticipated monthly usage. Key requirements include strict adherence to packaging and labeling standards, with each pack requiring manufacture and expiration dates, and outer packaging displaying the contract and delivery order numbers. Contractors are responsible for the production, sterility, and quality of the packs, including providing weekly electronic inventory reports and ensuring all components are traceable via lot numbers. Defective packs or those with compromised sterility must be replaced or credited at the contractor's expense. Interested respondents, including small businesses under NAICS 339112, must submit their capabilities, business classification, and authorization letters by October 19, 2026.
