Automated Special Stainer System SupplyThe contract solicits the supply of an automated histochemical staining system designed for diagnostic use in clinical laboratories, with the capability to perform both routine and complex staining protocols including AFB, GMS, PAS, Trichrome, Reticulin, and Iron stains. The system must meet stringent operational and reliability standards to support accurate pathological analysis in a high-throughput environment. The procurement is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Veterans Affairs through the Network Contract Office 19, with performance expected to take place in Salt Lake City, Utah, at the designated zip code 84148. The solicitation was posted on July 24, 2026, with responses due by July 31, 2026, at 4:00 PM, indicating a limited window for vendors to submit proposals. The North American Industry Classification System code 334516 specifically categorizes this as medical and diagnostic laboratory equipment manufacturing, ensuring that only qualified manufacturers or authorized distributors may respond. While no set-aside provisions or small business preferences are indicated, the contract demands full compliance with clinical diagnostic standards and likely requires evidence of prior deployments in similar healthcare or Veterans Affairs facilities. The absence of a point of contact suggests that all inquiries must be directed through the official Sam.gov platform linked in the posting.
