    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is soliciting offers for Brand Name Only healthcare modular furniture for the Fargo VA Health Care System's Inpatient Mental Health Unit. This solicitation is a 100% Small Business set-aside, issued under FAR 12 Commercial & FAR 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and will result in a single, firm-fixed-price award. The project requires the supply, delivery, and professional installation of furniture, including floor fixing and site cleanup, with a phased installation schedule dependent on ongoing construction. Offerors must be registered in SAM, complete a Buy American Certificate, and submit questions by January 16, 2026, and offers by January 31, 2026. The VA emphasizes safety, compliance with MHEOCC standards, and specific furniture characteristics designed for a secure mental health environment. Invoicing will be electronic through the VA Financial Services Center via Tungsten Network. The contract also outlines requirements for contractor conduct, badging, emergency procedures, and strict adherence to federal records management obligations.
    The “Buy American Certificate” provision (FAR 52.225-2) requires offerors to certify the domestic origin of end products. Offerors must identify foreign end products and indicate whether they exceed 55% domestic content, except for COTS items. They also need to list domestic end products containing a critical component. The provision defines key terms like “commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item,” “critical component,” “domestic end product,” “end product,” and “foreign end product.” The government evaluates offers based on Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 25 policies and procedures. This certificate ensures compliance with government procurement regulations prioritizing American-made goods.
    The Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 23, Station 437 Fargo VA Medical Center, is issuing a single source justification for the acquisition of specific furniture for its Inpatient Mental Health (IPMH) unit. The acquisition, identified as 36C263-26-AP-1378, is for an estimated amount over the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding $250K. The required supplies include 10 bed bases, 10 mattresses, 10 bedside tables, 3 activity/dining tables, 12 dining chairs, and 4 rockers. The justification for a single source award, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1, stems from the unique requirement that all IPMH interior furnishings must comply with the Mental Health Environment of Care Checklist (MHEOCC) Section 3.1.3, ensuring a safe and secure environment by mitigating risks such as ligature presentation, hazardous item concealment, and weaponization. The selected Pineapple furniture meets these safety standards and offers an ergonomic bed design suitable for patients using ambulatory aids. Market research was conducted to align with these safety standards, and the furniture is needed to coincide with construction on 4B Mental Health to avoid any lapse in bed availability. The Contracting Officer, Becky De Los Santos, certified the justification on December 29, 2025.
