The Department of Veterans Affairs is announcing an intent to sole source a contract for Abiomed services at the Washington DC Medical Center, which will cover one base year plus four option years. The procurement aims to secure comprehensive support for the Impella AIC System, including preventative and corrective maintenance, inspections, software updates, and repairs, ensuring the reliability of critical medical equipment used in veteran healthcare. Interested vendors, particularly those classified as service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses or other small business categories, are encouraged to respond with their qualifications and capabilities, as this notice serves primarily for market research and does not obligate the government to award a contract. For further inquiries, vendors may contact Patricia Thai at Patricia.Thai@va.gov or Amy Walter at Amy.Walter1@va.gov.
