- This is a synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation and a written solicitation will not be issued. The Request for Quote number is N686100063653. Quotes are due not later than 4:00 P.M.

The Naval Medical Logistics Command (NMLC) intends to negotiate on a Brand Name Only basis to procure Portable Surgical Microscope, manufactured by Scan Optics. Brand name only is specified because the Government would incur a substantial duplication of cost to consider other than the Scan Optics Portable Surgical Microscope that is not expected to be recovered through competition. Any vendors who can provide the brand name only equipment are encouraged to submit a quote. The Government contemplates award of a firm fixed price contract. This acquisition is being conducted under the FAR 13.5 test procedures for commercial items. The Defense Medical Standardization Board (DMSB) Deployable Medical System (DEPMEDS) program and the Command ™s initiative to enhance Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) for shipboard applications, the only technically acceptable item which has (ILS) support is the Microscope, Surgical Portable manufactured by Scan Optics. This is the only lightweight table mounted unit on the market and can be fixed to the surgical table and used. The Microscope, Surgical Portable manufactured by Scan Optics has been standardized for all of the fleet hospitals. The installed base is currently in more than half of the fleet hospitals. Brand name only is specified because the Government would incur a substantial duplication of cost, to consider other than the Microscope, Surgical Portable manufactured by Scan Optics which is not expected to be recovered through competition. These items were standardized to maintain interoperability between all of the fleet hospitals. The choice of any other manufacturer would result in a breakdown of that interoperability between fleet hospitals and reduce the lifesaving capability of each of the fleet hospitals.

The government anticipates award of a Firm Fixed Price Contract. BUSINESS QUOTE INSTRUCTIONS: Offerors shall price each CLIN and shall submit firm-fixed pricing for all CLINS, otherwise your quote will be determined to be substantially incomplete and not warrant any further consideration. If no separate price for a CLIN this must be stated. Brand name only. No substitutions will be allowed. Shipping shall be FOB Destination. Business quotes will be evaluated for Completeness (all CLINS are priced) and Reasonableness (the degree to which the proposed prices compare to prices that are reasonable, prudent person would expect to incur for the same or similar equipment and commensurate with the Governments need).
