The primary focus of this procurement is to secure a Firm-Fixed-Price Order for service, as Belimed is the sole manufacturer and supplier of the necessary services and parts, thereby limiting the contract to one source under FAR guidelines. The anticipated award date for the contract is December 30, 2024. This notice, while not a request for competitive proposals, serves to meet public notification requirements and to gauge marketplace interest for potential future procurements.

Specifically, it details the acquisition plan for full-service maintenance at the Roseburg and Eugene VA Medical Centers under FAR 13.5 Simplified Procedures for Commercial Items. The contract, with a base year and two option years, includes comprehensive service features such as preventative maintenance, diagnostics, and emergency support, ensuring the equipment operates at optimal levels. The justification for sole source procurement cites Belimed as the only responsible source due to their proprietary rights over the washer disinfectors currently in use at the facilities.

The document emphasizes the need for proper maintenance to satisfy clinical requirements, ensuring patient safety and compliance with quality control standards. Approval from relevant authorities is obtained, confirming the necessity of the procurement under the regulations outlined in the FAR. This procurement reflects the VA’s ongoing commitment to maintaining high standards in medical equipment service, particularly for critical technologies that are integral to patient care and safety.
