5675--Corian Solid Surface Intent to Sole Source

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Buffalo VA Medical Center issued solicitation 36C24226Q0286 as a notice of intent to award a sole source open market action contract to Parksite, LLC. This requirement involves the bulk purchase of Corian Lava Drift solid surface sheets to be delivered to VA facilities in Buffalo and Batavia, New York. The procurement is categorized under NAICS 337110 Wood Kitchen Cabinet and Countertop Manufacturing and PSC 5675 Nonwood Construction Lumber and Related Materials.

The brand-name-only acquisition includes 50 Lavadrift Corian sheets, with 25 sheets destined for 3495 Bailey Avenue in Buffalo and 25 sheets destined for 222 Richmond Avenue in Batavia. Each sheet must meet specific dimensions of 1/2-inch thickness, 60-inch width, and 144-inch length. The VA is pursuing a sole source award because the original equipment manufacturer, Dupont, restricted distribution within this territory to Parksite, LLC, and no other vendors possess the required Letter of Authorization for distribution. This material selection ensures continuity with exact items already installed at both medical centers.

Responses to this special notice are due by January 28, 2026. The point of contact for the requirement is Barry Sawyer. The notice includes two attachments: a Word document titled 36C24226Q0286.docx and a PDF document titled P03- Sole Source Buffalo Corian Surface.pdf, both of which were published on January 20, 2026.
