NOTICE OF THE INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE TO Comcast Cable Communications LLC, USA. 1701 John F. Kennedy Blvd Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-2838 USA. Response Due Date: 07/03/2026, by 8:00 AM (EST) NOTICE OF THE INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE SYNOPSIS Network Contract Office 1, Procurement Office East on behalf of The Department of Veterans Affairs, Northampton VA Medical Center located at 421 N. Main Street Leeds, MA 01053-9764 intends to award a firm-fixed contract to Comcast Cable Communications LLC to provide Comcast Cable for a period of one (1) year plus four (4) option years and installation to Northampton VA Medical Center.

THERE IS NO SOLICITATION AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. REQUESTS FOR A SOLICITATION WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE.
Background
The Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically the Northampton VA Medical Center, is issuing a notice of intent to award a firm-fixed contract to Comcast Cable Communications LLC. This contract aims to provide cable television services to the medical center, which is critical for patient care.

The decision to sole source this contract is based on the fact that Comcast is the only provider in the area capable of delivering these services without significant additional costs and delays.

Work Details
The contractor will be responsible for providing Comcast Cable services, including installation at the Northampton VA Medical Center. The justification for sole sourcing indicates that any other provider would need to install their own utility cables from the main street to the campus and also set up interior wiring and cabling for cable television boxes.

This would lead to increased costs and delays that could negatively affect patient care.

Period of Performance
The contract will be performed over a period of one year with four additional option years available.

Place of Performance
Northampton VA Medical Center, 421 N. Main Street, Leeds, MA 01053-9764.

Bidder Requirements
Comcast Cable Communications LLC is identified as the sole provider in this area, and no other bidders are required or accepted for this procurement.
