Specifically, the requirement is for a robotic prescription dispensing system. The system shall automatically select a prescription vial of the proper size, fill the vial with the proper medication and print and apply the correct prescription label. This label shall include the patient’s name, drug strength, drug description and bar codes, with auxiliary information to the vial. The system shall use bar codes to confirm correct drug product and strength. Vials shall be filled directly from drug dispensing cells to prevent cross-contamination. The vial shall be collated uncapped to the pharmacist for final verification. The system shall have a minimum of 200 drug dispensing cells and a minimum prescription filling speed of over 100 prescriptions per hour. The system shall use the Microsoft XP operating system and be compatible and interface with the Pharmacy 2000 system as well as the pharmacy department’s information systems, telephone lines and printers. The system shall have a maximum height of 105 inches and its weight shall not exceed 1,693 lbs. The electrical requirement for the system is 120 VAC, 60 Hz, single phase. Parata Systems is the only acceptable manufacturer with software and systems compatible with the existing Parata system used in the pharmacy at Naval Branch Health Clinic Port Hueneme, CA, and the Pharmacy 2000 system.. This acquisition is being conducted under simplified acquisition procedures (IAW FAR 13.5). There are no set-aside restrictions for this requirement. The intended procurement will be classified under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 339112 with a Small Business Size Standard of 500 employees. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation document exists for this requirement. However, parties interested in responding to this notice will need to submit technical data sufficient to determine capability in providing the same product. Due to the urgency of this requirement, all capability statements received within 5 days after publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
