Description

NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE: The Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 7, intends to award a sole-source contract to GETINGE USA, INC., 1777 E Henrietta RD, Rochester, New York, 14623-3133 to provide all parts and labor to prepare the Sterile Processing Services (SPS) site located at the Atlanta VA Medical Center, 1670 Clairmont Road, Decatur, Georgia 30033. The Atlanta VA Medical Center has three new Getinge DD 733 61" sterilizers. The sterilizers were purchased from Getinge to replace the current sterilizers (One Getinge 51" 633 SD and Two Getinge 733 SD sterilizers) within SPS.

Many aspects of the necessary task require knowledge of the sterilizers, both new and old, and fitting requirements which Getinge is intimately familiar with.
