The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Network Contract Office 4, has issued a Sources Sought Notice (Procurement Identifier: 36C24426Q0580) to conduct market research for the potential procurement of new partial knee instrumentation sets for the Lebanon VA Medical Center, located at 1700 S. Lincoln Ave., Lebanon, PA 17042. This notice is not a solicitation for bids, quotations, or proposals at this time, but rather seeks to identify capable sources and gather information to inform a future procurement strategy. The primary purpose of this procurement activity is to equip the Lebanon VA Medical Center with partial knee instrumentation sets that meet or exceed the design, performance, and quality standards of the referenced brand-name products. The facility currently utilizes Zimmer Biomet Oxford Partial Knee Implant Systems, and any proposed instrumentation must be fully compatible with these systems. The specific items referenced for descriptive purposes include: OXFORD BONE COLLAR REMOVER, LO PRO SPH MILL SML, LO PRO SPH MILL MED, LO PRO SPH MILL LGE, OXF MP 10DEG FMRL DRL GD LG, and OXF MP 10DEG FMRL DRL GD MED. Offerors may propose equivalent products, provided compatibility and quality benchmarks are met. Key requirements for this opportunity include the provision of a manufacturer warranty covering all equipment and supplies for a minimum of one year from the date of receipt and verification of installation/operation. All items are to be shipped directly to the Lebanon VA Medical Center warehouse. Contractors must ensure that their products are compatible with the existing Zimmer Biomet Oxford Partial Knee Implant Systems. The procurement is classified under NAICS Code 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), with Product Service Code 6515. The contracting entity is the Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contract Office 4, a federal office responsible for acquisition activities within the region. A significant consideration for this procurement is the potential for a set-aside under 38 U.S.C. 8127(d), which prioritizes competition among small business concerns owned and controlled by veterans, including service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSB) and veteran-owned small businesses (VOSB). Eligible firms must be verified by the Small Business Administration and listed at https://veterans.certify.sba.gov. Interested parties are required to provide detailed information regarding their socio-economic status, including whether they qualify as a small business, SDVOSB, VOSB, HUBZone, woman-owned, or large business under NAICS 339112. Respondents must submit a capability statement, relevant literature demonstrating their ability to supply the required items, a Letter of Authorization from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), and a brochure or specification sheet for the proposed products. Additionally, companies must provide their name, address, point of contact, phone number, email address, Unique Entity ID, CAGE Code, and Tax ID Number. Active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) is mandatory. All inquiries regarding this notice should be directed to Ryan Hatfield, Contract Specialist, via email at [email protected]. No phone calls will be accepted. Responses to this Sources Sought Notice are due by Friday, June 5, 2026, at 11:00 am EST. This opportunity is ideal for contractors specializing in surgical and medical instrument manufacturing, particularly those with experience in orthopedic instrumentation compatible with Zimmer Biomet systems. The requirements for warranty, compatibility, and socio-economic status verification will remain constant throughout the contract lifecycle, ensuring a consistent standard of quality and compliance.
