The Department of Defense, through the Washington Headquarters Services, intends to issue a sole-source contract to Midwest Storage Solutions for the procurement of Viking Preservation Cabinets, specifically the Spacesaver Viking 920 model, valued at approximately $281,623.45. This specialized equipment is crucial for securely managing and facilitating the identification of remains from U.S. service members at the Offutt lab in Nebraska, addressing current inadequacies in storage that hinder effective management and retrieval. The urgency of this procurement is underscored by the unique requirements of the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, which necessitates a flexible and secure storage solution compliant with ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation.
