Additional Details
The State of Washington, through its Department of Enterprise Services (DES), is participating in the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative contract for Automatic External Defibrillators (AED) and related accessories, under Contract No. 17522. This contract, established with Oklahoma as the lead state, is designed to streamline the procurement of AED units, accessories, and associated support services for public entities within Washington State. The overarching goal is to ensure that state agencies, local governments, and other eligible organizations have reliable access to life-saving AED equipment and support, while leveraging the competitive pricing and standardized terms negotiated through the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative.
The scope of this procurement encompasses the supply of Automated External Defibrillator devices, a comprehensive range of accessories, and support services necessary for the effective deployment and maintenance of AED programs. The contract facilitates purchases from a pre-approved list of manufacturers and their authorized dealers or distributors, ensuring product quality, compliance, and consistency across all participating entities. The awarded manufacturers under this contract include AVIVE Solutions, Inc., Stryker Sales, LLC, Philips Healthcare, LLC (currently transitioning to Heartstream, LLC), and Zoll Medical Corporation. Each manufacturer provides detailed pricing, product offerings, and support information, accessible via the NASPO ValuePoint website and the Washington DES contract portal.
Key requirements of the contract include adherence to Washington State procurement policies (RCW 39.26), compliance with DES procurement processes, and fulfillment of all reporting obligations. Notably, while customers may interact directly with authorized dealers or distributors for product selection and consultation, all sales must be reported through the manufacturer to ensure accurate tracking and compliance with NASPO and state reporting standards. This structure supports transparency and accountability throughout the contract lifecycle.
The contract is structured as a cooperative agreement, allowing eligible entities to benefit from pre-negotiated terms and pricing. Purchasers are instructed to reference DES Contract No. 17522 on all purchase orders and to consult the NASPO ValuePoint website for the most current list of authorized dealers and distributors, as well as for product documentation and pricing details. Special considerations include the ongoing assignment and assumption process for Philips Healthcare, LLC to Heartstream, LLC; during this transition, purchasers should continue to direct orders to Philips and consult the contract manager for any clarifications.
The place of performance for this contract is the State of Washington (State Code: WA). The contract was posted on January 7, 2024, and responses or participation are open through February 28, 2026. For further information or to address any issues such as broken links, stakeholders are encouraged to contact the DES Contract Administrator, Davis Abbott.
This procurement opportunity is particularly well-suited for manufacturers and distributors of AED equipment who are capable of meeting the rigorous standards and reporting requirements set forth by NASPO ValuePoint and the State of Washington. The contract offers a stable, long-term channel for supplying critical emergency medical equipment to a broad range of public sector customers across Washington State.
