Q301-- Pharmacy Gloved Fingertip and Media Filled Testing

The Department of Veterans Affairs is issuing a Service‑Disabled Veteran‑Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set‑aside RFQ (36C25626Q0509) for gloved fingertip and media‑fill testing services to support the Pharmacy Service Line at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center in Houston, TX. The contract will be a firm‑fixed‑price, single‑award, 12‑month award (05‑01‑2026 to 04‑30‑2027) covering annual testing for existing staff (104 units), additional testing (3 units), new‑employee testing (7 units), and a supplemental set of final fingertip plates and surface samples required under the 2022 USP 797 standards. Offerors must provide one to two Controlled Environment Testing Association (CETA)‑certified technicians, including resumes or certification documentation, and demonstrate active SAM registration as an SDVOSB; failure to verify status will result in a non‑compliant rejection. Evaluation will be based on a “lowest priced, technically acceptable” approach with no price/technical trade‑offs, and any option pricing must be balanced with the base requirement. Compliance with USP 797 sterile‑compounding standards and inclusion of all required solicitation provisions (e.g., FAR 52.212‑1, 52.212‑2) are mandatory.
