The Network Contracting Office (NCO) 16 has issued a Sources‑Sought/RFI (Notice of Intent to Sole Source) to determine market interest and capability for providing instrument‑marking services and the associated CensiTrac brand‑name or equal software for the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System (CAVHS). The contractor must perform instrument marking at the Eugene J. Towbin Healthcare Center (2200 Fort Roots Drive, Bldg. 182, North Little Rock, AR – rooms GK‑125 and GK‑126) and at 4300 West 7th Street, Little Rock, AR (loading dock), using a marking van parked on‑site. The effort is a one‑year requirement; respondents must detail delivery schedules, applicable contract vehicles (GWAC, GSA Schedule, IDIQ, BPA) with contract numbers, and provide literature proving that any equal product meets or exceeds the salient characteristics of CensiTrac. Additional mandatory information includes point‑of‑contact details, SAM UEI, small‑business certifications, compliance with the SBA Non‑Manufacturer Rule (four‑prong test), Buy‑American/Trade Agreement compliance, and proof of capability to supply the end product of a U.S. small‑business manufacturer.

The Government will use the information solely for market research and is not obligated to award a contract; lack of response will be treated as a decision to sole‑source.
