The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 2 intends to award a sole source contract to Cepheid for comprehensive service and maintenance of GeneXpert IV and XVI diagnostic systems at the Manhattan and Brooklyn campuses of the New York Harbor Healthcare System. The base period of performance runs from September 20, 2026, to September 19, 2027, with four optional one-year extensions, all contingent on government discretion. Cepheid, as the original equipment manufacturer and sole authorized provider of software, firmware, and maintenance support for these systems, is the only source capable of fulfilling the requirement under FAR 6.302-1, with all service activities requiring certified OEM field engineers, genuine parts, remote diagnostics, software updates, and preventive maintenance. The contract is classified under NAICS code 811210, with a size standard of $34 million in annual revenue, and requires contractors to be registered in the System for Award Management. All service and support must be delivered directly at the designated VA facilities in Manhattan and Brooklyn, with no alternative locations permitted. Interested parties may submit capability documentation to demonstrate their ability to meet the requirement by May 8, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, via email only with a precisely formatted subject line; no telephone inquiries are accepted. The submission must include detailed evidence of technical expertise, experience, and qualification to perform OEM-level maintenance on GeneXpert systems, though no formal evaluation factors or pricing details are provided, as this is a non-competitive action. No contract value has been disclosed, and no specific invoicing methods, payment offices, or accounting codes are indicated. The solicitation does not require packaging, labeling, or shipping standards, nor does it specify inspection criteria beyond adherence to OEM protocols. Cepheid’s exclusive authorization as the manufacturer and the absence of any competitive solicitation process confirm the sole-source basis of this action.
