- Parts List This is a notice of intent, not a request for a proposal. A solicitation document will not be issued and proposals will not be requested. The Clinical Center, Office of Purchasing and Contracts, intends to negotiate and award a purchase order on a noncompetitive basis to CareFusion Infusion, 3750 Torrey View Court, San Diego, CA 92130 for service parts for the Alaris Point of Care Unit, models 8000 and 8015 and Alaris Pump Module, model 8100. The list of requested parts can be found in the attachment to this notice. BACKGROUND: National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the primary federal agency for conducting and supporting medical research. Helping to lead the way toward important medical discoveries that improve people's health and save lives, NIH scientists investigate ways to prevent disease as well as the causes, treatments, and even cures for common and rare diseases. Composed of 27 institutes and centers, the NIH provides leadership and financial support to researchers in all fifty states and throughout the world. The Clinical Center at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland, is the nation's largest hospital devoted entirely to clinical research. It is a national resource that makes it possible to rapidly translate scientific observations and laboratory discoveries into new approaches for diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease. Approximately 1,500 studies are in progress at the NIH Clinical Center. About half the studies are the first tests of new drugs or medical treatments in people. The rest are natural history studies of diseases-including many rare diseases. These long-term studies lead to better understanding of how diseases develop and to improvements in prevention and treatment. The Biomedical Engineering and Property Management Section (BEIP) manages the maintenance, calibration, safety, and performance monitoring of clinical and nonclinical equipment and ensures that all clinical equipment meets regulatory agency(s) regulations and industry standards. Additionally, it repairs and maintains patient care and non-patient care nonmedical equipment. The section works closely with nurse consultant's office and other pertinent Clinical Center committees in forecasting, planning, and integrating current and future clinical equipment requirements for researchers. This acquisition is being conducted using policies unique to the acquisition of commercial items prescribed in FAR Part 12, in conjunction with the policies and procedures for solicitation, evaluation, and award prescribed in Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and is exempt from the competition requirements of Part 6. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities in response to this synopsis. The determination by the Government not to compete the proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Comments to this announcement, referencing this synopsis number, may be submitted to the Office of Purchasing and Contracts, prior to the closing date specified in this announcement, electronically to the attention of Stacey Polk, at spolk@cc.nih.gov.
