The Engineering/MTS service is requesting the acquisition of 20 Custom Enclosed Biowaste Carts for the Material Transport System (MTS).

Pedigo Products, Inc. has been selected to manufacture these custom-made stainless-steel carts once again. These carts are specifically designed to fit and be compatible with the MTS overhead railing conveyor system and the special elevators called MTS lifts. The failure rate of the old Bio-Hazard carts has resulted in a shortage of carts for hazardous waste within the MTS department.

Pedigo Products, Inc. is the sole provider of this proprietary module used within the Material Transport System (MTS). Their design is uniquely compatible with the overhead system, special elevators (MTS lifts), and the related electronic, electrical, and mechanical components that facilitate cart transportation between locations. To keep compatibility with parts and current Biowaste carts, the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System must continue to procure these carts from the original manufacturer Pedigo Products, Inc.

No award will be made on the basis of unsolicited quotations or offers received in response to this notice. Any response to this notice must show clear and compelling evidence that the responding company can provide the same items/services, and that competition will be advantageous to the Government.
