Quick Summary
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Health Security (OHS) has issued a Sole Source Justification for the urgent procurement of specialized emergency medical supplies and equipment. This requirement is for Vital Group Solutions LLC to provide 2 Clinic-in-a-Box and 11 Mobile Medical System kits to support force health protection and operational medicine during high-threat events like the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Freedom 250, and ongoing operations with ICE, CBP, and the U.S. Secret Service. Expedited delivery is required by July 31, 2026.
Scope of Work
OHS requires fully assembled emergency medical equipment/supply kits:
- Clinic-in-a-Box (Quantity 2): FOMS Physician and Clinician Mobile Clinical Loadout for on-site assessment, diagnostic evaluation, treatment, and clinical response.
- Mobile Kit (Quantity 11): FOMS Mobile Medical System for on-site clinical assessment, point-of-care testing, diagnostic evaluation, treatment, and rapid resupply.
Contract Details
- Type: Sole Source Justification (Justification and Approval)
- Product Service Code: 6545 - Replenishable Field Medical Sets, Kits, And Outfits
- Place of Performance: Las Vegas, NV
- Published Date: May 28, 2026
- Delivery Requirement: Expedited sourcing and delivery, with equipment ready to ship by July 31, 2026. Partial, rolling shipments are acceptable.
Sole Source Rationale
The justification identifies Vital Group Solutions LLC as the only source capable of meeting the urgent requirement due to:
- Their ability to provide the comprehensive solution, exact equipment configuration, and rapid sourcing.
- Extensive market research, including DHS Medical Supplies BPA and GSA Advantage, failed to identify other sources that could provide more than 48% of the specialized equipment or avoid a costly piecemeal approach.
- Vital Group Solutions LLC has an existing contract with ICE for similar equipment and confirmed their capability in writing.
- A SAM.gov synopsis on May 8, 2026, yielded no other interested and capable small business entities.
Anticipated Price Determination
The anticipated price will be determined fair and reasonable through market research, comparison with previous purchases, current price lists, similar industry items, and an Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE).
