What the notice says

Serialized Devices Inventory Required to Price Question 1: The Statement of Work requires maintenance, repair, testing, and potential send-out repair of serialized devices, including but not limited to handpieces, drills, shavers, and telescopes. Given the variability in labor time, parts cost, OEM requirements, and turnaround constraints for serialized devices, offerors are unable to reasonably price this requirement without visibility into current inventory levels. Will the Government provide a current inventory count of serialized devices, broken out by category (e.g., orthopedic handpieces… (show all)

, shavers, drills, telescopes) including Make & Model number? Information in Spreadsheet Establish a separate CLIN for serialized device send-out repairs (e.g., NTE or T&M), or Implementing a capitated serialized device CLIN based on an agreed inventory baseline? The Government is not setting up NTE or T&M or capitated CLIN. This is a firm fixed price contract to provide these preventative maintenance and repair services. On-Site Tray Maintenance Required Presence (Not Throughput) Question 2: The solicitation requires monthly on-site PMs of surgical sets but does not specify expected on-site presence (number of days per month). Because staffing and mobile unit deployment must be priced in advance, offerors cannot reasonably estimate labor requirements without a baseline expectation. Will the Government provide an estimated number of on-site days per month historically required to complete tray preventative maintenance at St. Cloud VAMC? One (1) to two (2) days per month for tray Preventative Maintenance. Case Carts Inventory and Annual Repair Exposure Question 3: The Scope of Work includes maintenance and repair of surgical case carts, including caster replacement and welding. To reasonably estimate parts and labor exposure, please provide: The current number of surgical case carts in service-Attached in spreadsheet The average number of carts receiving caster replacement annually over the past 12 24 months (if available) The Government does not have data available for caster and work completed in the last 1-2 years. Make/Model of case carts in service- Attached in spreadsheet Question 4: The solicitation includes the requirement that the Contractor shall be an OEM, authorized dealer, authorized distributor, or authorized reseller for medical equipment and replacement parts. For a surgical instrument maintenance and repair services contract supporting a multi OEM environment, this requirement appears to conflict with industry standard SPS service models, where contractors utilize OEM authorized parts and OEM repair channels without being the OEM or an authorized dealer for each individual manufacturer. Please clarify whether the Government s intent is that the Contractor: � � � � � � � � � � � (a) Must be the OEM or authorized dealer/distributor for every instrument manufacturer represented in the facility inventory, or � � � � � � � � � � � (b) May utilize OEM authorized replacement parts and documented OEM approved repair processes, including OEM or OEM authorized third party service where required, without the Contractor holding dealer/distributor status for each OEM- This is the Government s intent.

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.

Investor context
  • $BDX reported $22.5B revenue (12 months to Jun 30, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 70 past awards, $114K, is under 0.1% of that. SEC filing
  • $ABT reported $45.1B revenue (12 months to Mar 31, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 70 past awards, $114K, is under 0.1% of that. SEC filing

One award's total value against one year of revenue; many awards are paid over several years.

Latest awards

Materiality: one award's value as a share of the winner's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings (or its last fiscal year, as noted when you point at it). Low under 1%, Medium 1 to 5%, High 5% or more. Many awards are paid over several years, so this overstates a single year's share.
