J049--Purchase and installation of patient ceiling lift rail equipment for Clement J Zablocki VA Medical Center, 5000 W National Ave Milwaukee WI 53295 0004

The contract pertains to the sole-source purchase and installation of patient ceiling lift rail equipment at the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with Guldmann, Inc. identified as the exclusive provider due to the proprietary nature of its lifting systems, which have no viable alternatives in the market. The procurement is authorized under 41 U.S.C. § 3304(a)(1), FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), and VAAR 819.7007, eliminating the need for competitive bidding, comparative evaluations, or cost analysis, as the equipment’s uniqueness justifies non-competitive award. The solicitation number is 36C25226Q0550, posted on June 23, 2026, with a response deadline of June 26, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. Central Time, and submissions must be sent via email to Contract Specialist Sylvia Iloh. The place of performance is firmly established at the medical center’s location, 5000 W National Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53295-0004, where installation and acceptance will occur. No detailed specifications, pricing, line items, packaging, marking, or delivery schedules are included in the available documentation, indicating this is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source rather than a fully packaged solicitation. Payment office information is limited to the contracting office address, and while the NAICS code 811310 is assigned, no appropriation data, invoicing method, or contracting officer representative details are provided. The absence of CLINs, evaluation criteria, technical standards, or offeror certifications confirms the documentation’s preliminary nature, focusing exclusively on justifying exclusivity rather than outlining full contractual terms or deliverables.
