- Description
- Notice of Intent - Sole Source The Department of Veterans Affairs, Grand Junction, Colorado, intends to award a sole source commercial contract to Alcon Laboratories, Inc. The requirement is to purchase custom cataract surgical packages to be used with the existing Infiniti System Ozil (excluding videoverly). This Blanket Purchase Agreement is for five years from May 23, 2008 - May 22, 2013. These custom cataract surgical packages are the only ones (found by this agency) which can be utilized with the existing Infiniti System Ozil and its torsional ultrasonic oscillations. The result is more efficient and effective emulsification with less eye trauma. The risk of thermal injury is also considerably reduced. Alcon Laboratories Inc holds the patent for the OZilt Torisonal hand piece and its custom surgical packages. Alcon Laboratories, Inc is the only source that can satisfy the government's requirements. The North America Industry Classification System Code [NAICS] is 423450 and the size standard is 100 employees. All responsible sources may submit a response, which if timely received, will be considered by The Department of Veterans Affairs, Grand Junction. This synopsis is for notification purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation for bids or proposals. Any company that feels they can provide Alcon custom cataract surgical packages for Infiniti System Ozil must submit their technical data (2 pages or less) to support their claim no later than 27 May 2008. The information must explain the company's ability to overcome the restriction of patent rights. The Government does not intend to pay for any information provided under this synopsis. Point of Contact is Ronnie Wilkinson, Contracting Officer (970) 244-1305 email: ronnie.wilkinson@va.gov
