J065--Shimadzu Portables PM

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through Network Contracting Office 7, intends to award a sole-source, firm fixed-price contract to CMS Imaging, Inc. for preventative maintenance services on Shimadzu portable imaging equipment at the WJB Dorn VA Medical Center in Columbia, South Carolina. This action is justified under FAR 6.103-1, which permits non-competitive procurement when only one source is reasonably available, and a formal justification for single-source acquisition has been prepared. The contract will have a base year with four optional one-year extension periods, potentially extending performance over five years, and is classified under NAICS code 811210 for miscellaneous repair and maintenance. No solicitation package is available, and this notice serves only as an opportunity for interested parties to submit evidence demonstrating that competitive sourcing would be advantageous to the government, with responses required by 12:00 p.m. EST on Monday, June 29, 2026, submitted exclusively via email to Quentin.Deloney2@va.gov. The contracting officer, Quentin Deloney, is the sole point of contact, and no telephone or email inquiries will be entertained. The place of performance is clearly identified as the VA Medical Center in Columbia, SC, and while the contract type is firm fixed price, specific pricing, delivery schedules, and performance metrics are not detailed in the public notice. Payment, invoicing, and accounting data are unspecified, and no contracting officer’s representative, technical representative, or inspection criteria are outlined. The absence of any attached documents, clauses, or evaluation factors reflects the preliminary nature of this notice, which does not constitute a solicitation but rather a procedural step toward a non-competitive award.
