Quick Summary
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), specifically the VHA Network Contracting Office 21 on behalf of the VA Central California Healthcare System, is conducting a Sources Sought to identify capable contractors for Nuclear Medicine Radiopharmaceutical Dose Tracking Software. This market research aims to determine source availability and inform a potential future Request for Quote (RFQ). Responses are due April 28, 2026.
Scope of Work
