Radiolucent Carbon Fiber Baseplate Supply

The contract solicits the supply of low-density, radiolucent carbon fiber baseplates designed as a core component of an immobilization system used in radiation therapy. These baseplates must meet stringent technical specifications to ensure optimal patient positioning and imaging clarity during treatment, leveraging the material’s ability to minimize interference with radiation beams while maintaining structural integrity. The requirement is part of a subcontract under the Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically managed by the 260-NETWORK Contract Office 20, with performance expected to take place in Seattle, WA, at the 98108 zip code location. The solicitation was posted on August 4, 2026, with responses due by August 10, 2026, at 7:00 PM. The North American Industry Classification System code 326199 indicates the nature of the supply involves other rubber and plastics products, reflecting the specialized manufacturing required for medical-grade carbon fiber components. While no set-aside provisions or point of contact information is provided, the urgency of the deadline and the specificity of the technical requirements underscore the critical role these baseplates play in clinical applications for veteran healthcare. Suppliers must demonstrate capability in precision manufacturing, compliance with medical device standards, and consistent quality control to meet the demands of radiation therapy environments.
