Puget Sound VA Healthcare System Pharmacy PTZ Cameras

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, through the 260-NETWORK Contract Office 20 (36C260), has issued a Sources Sought Notice to identify qualified vendors capable of supplying and installing domestic end product Hanwha XNP-6120HW 2MP PTZ IP cameras for use in the pharmacy clean room at the Puget Sound VA Healthcare System in Seattle, Washington. This notice is not a solicitation for proposals but a market research tool to assess industry availability, technical capability, and responsiveness to the required specifications, which include 10x to 20x optical zoom, minimum 1080p resolution, low-noise imaging, H.264 or H.265 video compression, RTSP/RTMP/SRT streaming protocols, quiet mechanical operation, sealed housing suitable for clean room environments, and secure network integration compliant with federal and VA cybersecurity standards. The procurement is scoped around a brand name or equal requirement and will necessitate installation experience within federal healthcare settings, particularly with Veterans Health Administration systems, requiring coordination with VA stakeholders including Biomedical Engineering, Office of Information Technology, Facilities Management, Pharmacy, and Infection Control. Vendors must demonstrate familiarity with VA directives, change management workflows, risk assessments, Method of Procedure development, and as-built documentation, though no formal evaluation factors, weights, or award criteria are yet defined. The place of performance is clearly identified as Seattle, WA, with the contracting office located in Vancouver, WA, and responses must be submitted by May 27, 2026. There is no set-aside designated, and the North American Industry Classification System code is 561621 for Security Systems Services. No pricing, line items, contract value, delivery schedule, FOB terms, or payment details are included, as this is purely a pre-solicitation notice aimed at gathering market information. Packaging, marking, preservation, and MIL-STD requirements are not specified, and while inspection and acceptance are implied to occur at the installation site, no formal procedures or responsible parties are defined. Respondents are expected to provide concise information regarding their ability to meet technical, compliance, and installation requirements, particularly involving secure, high-resolution imaging systems in regulated healthcare environments, without submitting formal proposals. The government will use the feedback to determine the most effective acquisition strategy, whether through competitive or sole-source methods, for a future contract action.
