- THIS IS A PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE OF TIERED EVALUATIONS: This procurement for medical/surgical prime vendor (MSPV) items is set-aside based on an order of priority as established in 38 U.S.C. 8127. TIERED EVALUATIONS INCLUDING LARGE BUSINESS CONCERNS: This solicitation is being issued as a tiered evaluation with the following tiers: (1) SDVOSB concerns, (2) VOSB concerns, (3) small business concerns with HUBZone small business concerns and 8(a) participants having priority; and (4) large business concerns. If award cannot be made, the solicitation will be cancelled and the requirement resolicited. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) intends to issue Request for Quotes (RFQ) on December 08, 2023, for the acquisition of the following consumable commodities in support of the Medical/Surgical Prime Vendor (MSPV) Program catalog: surgical masks, respirator masks and powered air purifying respirators and required filters, face shields and protective eyewear, disposable and reusable surgical and isolation gowns, head and foot coverings, and other gear or clothing used to protect an individual from the transmission of disease, EXCLUDING GLOVES; in compliance with the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) PL 117-58, and the Make Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in America Act . The MSPV Program is a partnering effort between Veterans Healthcare Administration (VHA) and the VA Office of Acquisition, Logistics and Construction (OALC) to deliver a national strategic sourcing solution that combines a formulary approach with electronic cataloging and ordering of a wide range of medical and surgical supplies for the Veterans Administration Medical Centers (VAMC) and related facilities. The establishment of Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) is in direct support of this initiative and is a key element in the success of the MSPV Program as the BPAs will provide the mechanism that will supply the types of supplies for distribution to all VHA facilities located in the United States (US) and all US Territories. In order to support the MSPV Program, the VA will establish BPAs for medical/surgical supplies through Open Market BPAs under FAR Parts 12/13. The solicitation will be structured as a tiered evaluation to maximize Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and Veteran-Owned Small Business (SD/VOSB) participation. Quotations will be evaluated based on technical, price, and past performance. VHA clinicians will participate in evaluating all supplier quotations and awards will be made using comparative analysis.
