This is a Notice of Intent published in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) requiring the dissemination of information regarding proposed contract actions. This Notice of Intent is for a proposed award of a sole source, firm-fixed price contract under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.

The equipment is routinely used by VA to provide laboratory software for veterans in the VA Healthcare System. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 334516 and the service code is J066. While this synopsis does not constitute a solicitation, interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to satisfy the requirement.

However, vendors that believe they can provide the capabilities required to fully meet the Government's requirement may submit information in writing to marie.weathers@va.gov by June 16, 2025.
