- Description
- The New Mexico Veterans Affairs Health Care System (NMVAHCS), 1501 San Pedro Drive SE, Albuquerque NM 87108, intends to negotiate a sole-source commercial (FAR Part 12) supplies contract with Bosch Packaging Technology that is located at 8700 Wyoming Ave. North, Minneapolis, NM 55415 in accordance with FAR Part 6.302- 1. The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-04. The contract shall provide the VA Cooperative Studies Program Clinical Research Pharmacy Coordinating Center (CSPCRPCC) with quantity one (1) system: Bosch Model GKF 701 Capsule Filling and Closing Machine. This unit's capsule powder filling maximum output is 700 capsules per minute and pellet filling 330 capsules per minute. The unit can be used for over-encapsulation with add-on tooling. Capsule size range is from 00 through 5. The unit's design, layout and construction materials all comply with GMP guidelines. The unit utilizes the tamping pin/plug formation principle for reducing fill weight and to increase fill uniformity. The unit is to be ordered with a Qualification/Validation package along with training and installation. The unit will be used in conjunction with a Bosch Model GSK-400, thereby increasing usage flexibility, decreasing training, maintenance and down time. This is considered to be sole source because of the foregoing statements, all of which are vital considerations in determining the system best meeting this facility's needs. Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. A justification for other than full and open competition has been prepared in support of this acquisition. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. Parties may identify their interest to the Contracting Officer no later than 1400 Mountain Standard Time, July 29, 2005. A determination by the Government not to compete the action based on responses is solely within the Government's discretion. Information received will be for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive proposal. The determination to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of NMVAHCS. Inquiries will only be accepted in writing by mail, or by facsimile at (505) 248-3206.
