The sterilizing units in the operating room and central material service department requires preventive maintenance, Original Equipment Manufactured (OEM) parts replacement and support of trained technicians to include training of hospital staff in the operation and preventive maintenance of the equipment. Contractor shall provide services in compliance with the Customer Maintenance Plan for the STERIS medical equipment located at Evans Army Community Hospital, Fort Carson, CO. Coverage includes all parts, all labor and travel charges (second line repairs), all operating system software upgrades/updates, unlimited telephonic technical support, and priority customer response. The contractor will provide auxiliary support services with a dedicated support team, all required parts and labor/travel (when necessary) to maintain the equipment in a serviceable condition in accordance with the manufacturers specifications, priority phone support and continuous product information updates and bulletins. Contractor will provide technical assistance, replacement parts and install hardware and software updates required by the manufacturer. The required service is to be performed at the Evans Army Community Hospital, Fort Carson, CO. by STERIS Corporation. STERIS Corp. is the OEM of the repair parts and manufacturer trained technicians for the equipment to be covered and serviced. STERIS Corp has OEM factory trained personnel who have immediate access to the OEM parts. The parts used on the units are proprietary to them. Failure to use the OEM parts will not work on the existing equipment. Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. STERIS Corp. is the only source of authorized replacement parts for those units already in place. The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302-1. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within forty-five days (thirty days if award is issued under an existing basic ordering agreement) after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon 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.
