This Request for Information (RFI) is issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs for the purpose of planning and information gathering. It seeks potential sources to provide reagents and supplies for flow cytometry testing at the Baltimore VAMC within the Hematology section of the Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Service. The required materials will be used for CD4/CD8 count testing and the phenotyping of white blood cells in leukemia and lymphoma assays, specifically for use with the Becton Dickinson FACSLyric system. The scope includes a detailed list of specific reagents, buffers, and quality control calibration materials, such as BD FC Beads, to monitor daily performance and spectral overlap. The anticipated performance period is from December 3, 2026, to December 2, 2027. Because this is a sources-sought notice and not a formal solicitation, the final acquisition strategy, contract type, and evaluation methodology are still to be determined. Interested respondents must provide company identification, including their CAGE code and SAM UEI, and specify whether they are a manufacturer or distributor. Additionally, they must provide the country of origin for all products, technical literature demonstrating that their products meet or exceed the specified brand name requirements, and a current authorized distributor letter certified by the OEM.
