This is a correction to a previously published sources sought announcement, changing the final date for response and correcting the NAICS code. Interested vendors should contact the contracting officer, via email (

Interested vendors who have already responded to earlier announcements from the contracting officer on this topic need not respond to this correction. The VA National Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacy (CMOP) program is intending to replace its current direct-to-patient distribution contract. The basic operation of the current contract is synopsized as follows: - Automated transmissions, to the contractor, of prescriptions from each CMOP facility. - Contractor maintains sufficient on-hand stock for real-time fulfillment of prescriptions within a minimum time period. - Contractor expeditiously ships the prescriptions direct to the patient within a minimum time period. - Contractor timely invoices each CMOP for prescription fulfillment. In general, the prescribed products being delivered direct to the patient consist of approximately 1,000 different types of medical / surgical (MED/SURG) items (e.g.: syringes, adult diapers, dressing kits, etc.) and some over-the-counter (OTC) products (e.g.: dietary supplements, etc.). The prescriptions being delivered will be shipped direct to veteran patients who are located in any part of the United States or its territories, and will vary in product size. This is a correction to the previously published and modified sources sought announcement. This is not an announcement of a solicitation, nor is it a request for proposals or quotations.
