Q201--VISN 21 Patient Elopement and Wandering Prevention (VA-26-00049526)

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Sierra Pacific Network (VISN 21) issued this combined synopsis and solicitation, numbered 36C10B26R0020, to address the maintenance and standardization of Patient Elopement and Wandering (PEW) Prevention Systems across its healthcare facilities. These systems are critical for protecting vulnerable patients in Community Living Centers, inpatient units, emergency departments, and behavioral health settings. Currently, VISN 21 utilizes three different platforms with varying hardware generations, which has led to increased sustainment costs and limited operational interoperability. The objective of this requirement is to maintain existing systems while developing a unified, enterprise-capable PEW solution that establishes a common standard across all VISN 21 healthcare systems.

The procurement is classified under NAICS code 541519, Other Computer Related Services, and PSC Q201, MEDICAL- GENERAL HEALTH CARE. Proposals must be submitted by the response deadline of July 13, 2026, and any questions regarding the solicitation are due by June 22, 2026. The contract point of contact is Juan C. Perez. The solicitation includes three attachments: a DOCX file, a PDF containing the primary patient elopement prevention details, and an XLSX price spreadsheet, all of which were published on June 11, 2026.
