6835--HTG Multiple Medical Gas IDC Amendment 1 Answer to Questions

The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking medical gases for the Huntington, West Virginia area under solicitation 36C24522Q0380. This requirement is classified under NAICS 325120 Industrial Gas Manufacturing and PSC 6835 Medical Gases. This procurement is not restricted by a set-aside, as the government determined that the NAICS and PSC combination is not subject to a class waiver and a set-aside would violate the non-manufacturer rule. Capable and interested vendors are invited to submit response packages to be evaluated based on the factors identified in the Statement of Work.

This combined synopsis/solicitation is managed by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 5. The primary purpose of the recent amendment is to clarify that while the Huntington location is now under VISN 5, certain VISN 9 contracts may remain effective, and this specific procurement is independent of other regional awards. Responses are due by April 13, 2022, at 1:00 PM EST. The solicitation includes three attachments: two Word documents and one PDF request for quotation. Stephanie Henderson serves as the point of contact for this requirement.
