- Description
- Intent to Sole Source The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/Operational Contracting Division, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB), Ohio 45433-5344. This is a Sole Source synopsis published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the procurement of the Incepta CRT-D N160 and its supplies for surgery implant in a patient with congestive heart failure at the WPAFB Medical Treatment Facility (MTF). The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 339113. Size standard is 500 employees. The proposed source is Boston Scientific Corporation, 300 Boston Scientific Way, Marlborough, MA 01752. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received within five (5) days of this notice. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: The Government requires the Incepta CRT-D N160 and its supplies for surgery implant in a patient with congestive heart failure at the WPAFB MTF. Boston Scientific Corporation is the only known source for this system which is required by the performing surgeon for this type of procedure. The surgeon has been trained in the use of the Incepta CRT-D N160 and its supplies, and if these items are not used the surgery would need to be sent off base at a substantial duplication of cost to the Government. The Department of Defense (DoD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DoD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DoD. Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for solicitations issued after 29 May 2012. You may contact SAM at 866-606-8220. SAM website: www.SAM.gov. Any information should be e-mailed to Rachael.waggoner@us.af.mil not later than five (5) days of this notice. Only inquiries/information received by this date will be considered. Be advised that all correspondence sent via e-mail shall contain a subject line that reads "FA8601-14-T-0292 Surgery". Note that e-mail filters at Wright-Patterson AFB are designed to filter e-mails without subject lines or with suspicious subject lines or contents (i.e.,.exe, or.zip files). Therefore, if this subject line is not included, the e-mail may not get through the e-mail filters. Also be advised that.zip or.exe files are not allowable attachments and may be deleted by the e-mail filters at Wright-Patterson AFB. If sending attachments with e-mail ensure only.PDF,.doc, or.xls documents are sent. The e-mail filter may delete any other form of attachments.
