- Description
- This synopsis is a modification to the original synopsis. The purpose of this synopsis is to inform industry that there has been a change to the requirements in the subject solicitation. Through this solicitation the Defense Supply Center Philadelphia (DSCP) is seeking proposals from offerors interested in entering into a Firm-Fixed Price (with Economic Price Adjustment) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract(s) to support the worldwide demand for knee and hip prosthetics products that fall into the following groups: Groups One through Four contain knee and hip prosthetic implants (either procedural and/or component pricing); Group Five contains instrumentation sets that will be used by the Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs) during implantation of the knee and hip prosthetic and returned to the contractor; and, Group Six contains auxiliary products needed for implantation of a knee and hip prosthetic. Offers may be submitted on Group One through Group Six individually or collectively, except, any offer of procedural pricing must also offer component pricing of implants. This solicitation contains an on-site personnel requirement that is applicable to offerors who submit a proposal that includes implant and/or instrumentation sets. The contractor will be required to provide technical advice and guidance to physicians before, during and after implantation of the prosthetic at the request of the MTFs. Technical support shall be available twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. This solicitation contains three delivery methods depending on the group(s) of products offered. The three delivery methods are: Consignment, Just-in-Time and Direct Delivery. Offerors who submit an offer that includes implants detailed in Group One through Four must be able to deliver ?Just-In-Time? and ?Direct Delivery?. Offerors that submit an offer that includes auxiliary products and/or instrumentation sets detailed in Group five and Group six must deliver products ?Just-In-Time? and/or ?Direct Delivery?. The choice of ?Consignment Agreement? as a delivery method is optional. However, ?Consignment Agreement? will only be considered as a delivery method for auxiliary products and instrumentation sets if the offeror is offering implants on consignment. After award of any contracts resulting from this solicitation, each MTF that will be ordering will inform the contractor if they intend to use ?Consignment Agreement?. Consignment as a delivery method will be limited to those MTF that perform implant surgeries in such a number that they can turn their inventory 2.5 inventory turns a year. All catalog prices submitted should be FOB Destination. Contractors will be required to submit catalog(s). It is encouraged that the catalog(s) submitted in response to this solicitation contain the offeror?s entire knee and hip product line that fall within the groups identified above. All applicable products must be Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved. DSCP intends to make awards to offerors who comply with the requirements of the solicitation. This solicitation covers DSCP ECAT customers worldwide. Offerors should submit Continental United States (CONUS) catalogs, which include all facilities, located in the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia as well as Alaska and Hawaii. These CONUS sites will be implemented first. The Outside Continental United States (OCONUS) catalog will include facilities located outside the continental United States as defined above and will be solicited at a future date under this solicitation number. Due to transportation costs, potential customer problems, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) restrictions and/or limitations, a separately priced OCONUS catalog will therefore not be required with your initial submission under this solicitation. For both CONUS and OCONUS catalogs, all facilities must be serviced. After award, each contractor?s product line will be loaded into the DSCP Medical Electronic Catalog (ECAT). The catalog must reflect a total delivered price. Total delivered price is defined as the total cost of an item inclusive of transportation and distribution costs. Physicians from the ordering facilities will make a ?Best Value? decision when selecting products. All transactions sets under any resultant contracts are required to be electronic. Each contractor will be required to use ECAT to electronically receive 850-Purchase Orders, transmit 997-Functional Acknowledgement?s, send 855-Order Confirmation?s and transmit 810-Invoices for payment. There are (3) three communication options available for ECAT: Web Supplier Interface, Global Healthcare Exchange (GHX) and American National Standard Institute (ANSI) x 12 EDI Standards. Offerors must have the capability of using at least one of these eCommerce communication options. Offerors will be required to successfully complete system testing prior to receiving an award under this solicitation. Closing dates and time for receipt of proposals are hereby amended. This solicitation allows for two open seasons: the first open season will commence on June 7, 2005 and close September 7, 2005 at 3:00 P.M./EST. The second open season will commence December 7, 2005 and close March 7, 2006 at 3:00 P.M./EST. Proposals received during the open season will not be evaluated before the solicitation has closed. Offerors are requested to submit complete proposals for all requirements, as specified in the solicitation. Any resultant contracts will have a one (1) year base period with four (4) one-year unilateral option periods. This procurement has an estimated dollar value of $20 million dollars over the total contract period for all contracts combined.
