Description
RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 Questions and Answers, 15 through 19. Question 15: Could you please provide clarification to the statement "It is anticipated that only contractors with current commercially available or adaptable systems will be eligible for this effort"? Does this mean that the contractor conducting the assessment and recommendations will also be expected to provide all the work necessary to implement the recommendations or does it contemplate a second solicitation to determine appropriate contractors to implement the recommendations? Answer 15: RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 has been amended to reflect a request for information in regard to a possible assessment and recommended solution to improve the VA's Medical, Surgical and Prosthetic Advanced Supply Chain Capability. There is no expectation that any vendor, conducting an assessment and providing a recommended solution, will carry out implementation. Implementation of a solution would be a separate effort. ***** Question 16: Do you still intend to host an industry day where we will be able to provide additional information on our capabilities? Answer 16: The market research conference for RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 has been canceled. ***** Question 17: Can you indicate if the objective of the information request is gain input from solution providers related to their capabilities and systems or is it open to firms who provide assessment and implementation support to aid in the analysis of requirements, selection of a solution, and implementation of the system? Answer 17: The objective of RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 is to gain information about potential vendor's capabilities in conducting an assessment and recommending a solution to improve the VA's Medical, Surgical and Prosthetic Advanced Supply Chain Capability. ***** Question 18: Finally, is there any opportunity to extend the deadline? Answer 18: The deadline for responses to RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 will not be extended at this time. The response time and date for RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 is no later than 3:00 PM (est.) on Wednesday, April 21, 2010. ***** Question 19: Can you please provide clarification on whether the more recent RFI request is looking for vendors that can perform the advisory services originally identified or a vendor that currently has their own solution to propose with their products capabilities? Answer 19: The objective of RFI VA798-10-RI-0068 is to gain information about potential vendor's capabilities in conducting an assessment and recommending a solution to improve the VA's Medical, Surgical and Prosthetic Advanced Supply Chain Capability. *****
