The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is excited to announce the upcoming MSPV PPE Industry Day on May 12, 2026. This event is intended to bring together suppliers, manufacturers, and industry stakeholders involved in the production and distribution of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to support the VA s Medical/Surgical Prime Vendor Program. Our goal is to foster collaboration, share valuable insights, and enhance the procurement and supply chain processes for PPE necessary to serve our veterans and healthcare providers effectively.

This event will be held in conjunction with the Coalition for Government Procurement (CGP) Spring Training Conference, which will take place on May 13 14, 2026, at the same venue. Attendees interested in participating in the CGP Spring Training Conference can find more details and register below.

All items must be in compliance with the “Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act” (IIJA) PL 117-58, and the “Make Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in America Act”. Additionally, this Industry Day event will exclude gloves. Additionally, any information from industry awareness for specific PPE items that may have no compliant items available is welcome.
