Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin. The order, identified as 36C25226N0459, was issued under the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract SPE2D1-17-D-0022 and covers a base period from August 2, 2026, through August 1, 2027, with four additional one-year option periods extending the contract’s ultimate completion date to August 1, 2031. The total potential value of the contract is $1,747,036.84. This acquisition was conducted as a non-competitive, sole-source procurement under FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(B) and 41 U.S.C. 1901, justified by the necessity of using the original equipment manufacturer due to the specialized nature of the equipment and software, with no other vendors authorized to perform maintenance or repair work. The contract falls under simplified acquisition procedures as outlined in FAR 13.106-1(b)(2), and no competitive evaluation factors or pricing details beyond the total obligated amount were disclosed. Performance is exclusively tied to the Madison, WI facility, and the contracting office located in Milwaukee, WI, serves as the administrative point of contact. The only required submission from the vendor was a capability statement in MS Word or Adobe PDF format, emailed directly to Eileen Meyer at eileen.meyer@va.gov, with no telephone inquiries permitted and no formal packaging, labeling, or invoicing system specifications provided. Payment details, accounting codes, and personnel designations such as the Contracting Officer’s Representative or Technical Representative are not identified in the available documentation.
