Background The Department of Veterans Affairs is issuing this contract to provide and install AMSCO 50 Series Reprocessing Sinks at the Kansas City Veterans Administration Medical Center.

Bidders must be authorized distributors or manufacturers of the AMSCO products and are required to submit an Authorized Distributor Letter from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) along with their quote. Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent and/or closely related prior contract based on V797D60613-36C24225F0192 awarded to Steris Corporation for $49,991 (08/25/25–11/24/25). That prior work involved purchase and installation of STERIS AMSCO reprocessing sinks, including deinstallation of existing AMSCO 50 sinks, which aligns with the current requirement to provide and install additional AMSCO 50 Series reprocessing sinks at the same Kansas City VA Medical Center. The focus on AMSCO reprocessing sink installation/deinstallation suggests the current effort may be a continuation or expansion of the facility’s sterile processing sink infrastructure.
