- Description
- Complete answers and all supporting documentation must be provided with the vendor’s submittal by the response date stated in the FBO Sources Sought notification. A vendor who does not meet all of these requirements or who does not submit documentation to support these requirements as requested will not be qualified for the QSL. Vendor must provide responses to the Sources Sought notification via the FBO Package Worksheet. The Defense Medical Materiel Program Office (DMMPO) Medical Materiel Enterprise Standardization Office (MMESO) and the Defense Logistic Agency (DLA) Troop Support Medical Prime Vendor (PV) Program announce a Sources Sought Notification for the creation of a Qualified Suppliers Listing (QSL) for Safety Lancets, Adult. This is not a request for quote or proposal. The MMESO West is the lead MMESO for this project. These Safety Lancets, Adult products are for purchase by the Military Treatment Facilities (MTFs) of the Military Health System (MHS) and for the operational assemblages of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Naval Expeditionary Medical Support Command (NEMSCOM) and managed regionally by MMESOs North, South, West, Pacific and Europe, hereafter referred to as MMESOs. For information regarding DLA Troop Support Medical's PV program please access its web site at https://www.medical.dla.mil. This Sources Sought notification is intended to solicit information and products for evaluation in order to create a QSL in accordance with (IAW) FAR 9.2 for Safety Lancets, Adult. The QSL for Safety Lancets, Adult will be established approximately September 2013 and is anticipated to be the basis of a Standardization Action. Qualified vendors will be invited approximately October 2013 to submit pricing proposals to enter into an Incentive Agreement for Safety Lancets, Adult. The government reserves the right to standardize or not standardize on Safety Lancets, Adult. A. Products & Performance Required. The MMESOs are seeking product line items in the category of Safety Lancets, Adult. Within the MHS MTFs and operational procurement this product line has an estimated annual dollar requirement of $218,592.70. This forecast is based on historical usage data during a recent 12-month period. Based on usage data, six adult safety lancets of the total seven products represent the six clinically significant product groups for the QSL. Of these six items, one item accounts for 56.80% ($124,172.64) of the total volume in sales, ($218,592.70) and is required for Standardization. B. Instructions to Vendors Vendors interested in being added to the QSL will provide a response to the FBO Sources Sought notification via e-mail to the POCs below. The vendor's responses will include detailed information requested in the requirements listed in the FBO Sources Sought notification and must also include: (1) Company name and address; (2) Company POC (Name and Phone Number, Fax Number, and E-mail address); (3) Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Code; and (4) Identification of the Sources Sought notification to which the vendor is responding. Due to the potential for e-mail to be lost in transmission, from network security, etc., vendors are strongly encouraged to confirm with the MMESO West that its submission, quote and literature actually arrived at the MMESO West via e-mail. Each submitting vendor is advised to confirm receipt, allowing adequate time for resubmission before the due date and time should a problem occur with the first submission. Vendor must complete and submit the FBO Package Worksheet. A vendor who cannot open the FBO Package Worksheet may contact the POC as noted in the FBO Sources Sought notification and a copy will be provided via an alternate method (fax, email or hard copy).

Submissions received after the date listed for closing will be reviewed periodically and vendors will be notified of whether they met or did not meet the QSL requirements within approximately 240 days.
