- Description
- The VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System (VAPHS) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Aesculap, Inc., 3773 Corporate Parkway Ste. 2, Center Valley, PA 18034-8217, to purchase Surgical Instrument Sterlization Trays, in accordance with FAR 6.302-1. It is essential to purchase the Aesculap, Inc. brand sterilization trays since it currently has all Aesculap Sterlization Trays, which requires the same manufacturer's filters, locking devices, and tags, and since having another manufacturer's trays would require different filters, locking devices, and tags, which can cause confusion that can jeopardize patient care, and since the trays made by Aesculap are lighter, which are easier for the medical staff to handle, and since having the same manufacturer's trays allows for them to be stacked, which saves space and allows for better safety in the operating room. This Notice of Intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. Parties may identify their interest; accompanied by supporting literature, to the Contracting Officer no later than September 15, 2008 C.O.B. Responses should be sent to Ronald.Mazzei@va.gov or faxed to Ronald Mazzei at (412) 365-5451. No telephone responses will be accepted. Information received will be for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. The determination to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.
