- Description
- The Cincinnati VA Medical Center intends to negotiate a sole source acquisition with Hansen Medical, Inc. to purchase a robotic cardiac catheterization system (Sensei Robotic Catheter System). The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 423450 and the Government believes that Hansen Medical, Inc. is a Small Business and the only manufacturer that can satisfy the agency requirements. Therefore, the Government intends to proceed with a 8(A) sole source procurement for the required equipment. This procurement is being conducted in accordance with FAR 6.302 - only one responsible source and no other vendor will satisfy agency requirements. To the best of our knowledge, Hansen Medical, Inc., Mountain View, CA is the only source that provides the above indicated items and features. This is a notice of intent to sole source and is not a request for competitive quotes. However, any firm that believes it can meet these requirements may give written notification to the Contracting Officer within three (3) calendar days from the date of publication of this synopsis. Telephone and facsimile requests/inquiries will not be accepted. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail, to demonstrate the ability to comply with the above requirements. Information can be sent to the Cincinnati VA Contracting Office at christopher.blazejewski@va.gov. If electronic format is not available, then please send to VAMC Attn: Chris Blazejewski, Contracting (90C), 3200 Vine Street, Cincinnati, OH, 45220-2213. Responses received will be evaluated. However; a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
