Operator Training Services

The contract requires the provision of comprehensive training services to Veterans Affairs laboratory staff focused on the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of all three labeling systems in use, with particular emphasis on unattended processing workflows and the timely replacement of consumables. Training must be delivered in a manner that ensures staff attain full proficiency in handling daily functions, resolving common and complex issues, and sustaining system reliability without constant oversight. The scope is narrowly defined to cover only these three labeling systems, and successful performance hinges on the trainer’s ability to customize instruction to varying skill levels while maintaining strict adherence to VA protocols and safety standards. This subcontract is solicited under NAICS code 611430, which categorizes it as other schools and instruction, reflecting its focus on specialized technical instruction rather than general education. The opportunity was posted on July 21, 2026, with a firm deadline for responses set for August 3, 2026, at 4:00 PM. The contracting office is the Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically the 242-NETWORK Contract Office 02, and while no specific location details are provided, performance is expected at VA laboratory facilities. The nature of the work demands a vendor with proven experience in training technical personnel within federal healthcare or laboratory environments, and timely, effective delivery of the training program is critical to ongoing operational efficiency.
