Bio-Medical Equipment Maintenance for USNS ComfortUSNS Comfort T-AH 20 requires comprehensive calibration and maintenance services for its 90 specialized Biomedical Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE) to ensure patient safety, operational readiness, and compliance with manufacturer specifications. The vessel, operating in ready-5 status, supports global medical deployment for combat and humanitarian missions with a 1,000-patient capacity and over 2,600 medical devices, all of which depend on accurately calibrated TMDE to function reliably. Without timely recalibration, equipment risks failure, inaccurate readings, or unsafe operation, directly threatening mission success and clinical outcomes. The incumbent contractor, Southeastern Biomedical Associates, is identified as the only entity capable of performing these services due to its unique expertise in handling the full range of equipment listed, including proprietary devices from manufacturers such as Fluque Biomedical, Pronk Technologies, and Ophir Optronics, requiring specialized knowledge, certified tools, and direct access to OEM protocols. The contract will cover all labor, parts, diagnostic equipment, inspections, and shipping necessary to calibrate and perform corrective maintenance on each device to like-new or better condition, strictly adhering to OEM guidelines. Any repairs beyond routine maintenance, such as defect remediation or component replacement, must be reported in writing to the Contracting Officer, COR, and Chief Biomedical Repair Tech with a cost estimate. This is a sole source acquisition justified by market research and the narrow technical scope requiring exclusive capabilities. Interested firms must submit a capability statement of no more than five pages by 2:00 PM local time on July 7, 2026, via email to the designated Navy address, including business size, CAGE code, and verifiable evidence of technical and managerial competence. The acquisition is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 621511.
