- Description
- The goal of the Manufacturer Direct Program is to establish an alternative to manual open market purchase activity, re-engineer the business process with automated e-commerce business solution. The objective of this solicitation is to establish a Fixed Price (with Economic Price Adjustment) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract with Zimmer US, Inc. for their hip, knee, spine, extremity (shoulders and elbows), trauma "procedural packages," orthobiological products, auxiliary products (such as drill bits, saw blades, bone cement etc.) and instrumentation sets needed for implantation. Other Zimmer Orthopedic product groups determined to be in the scope of the contract may be solicited at a future date under this solicitation. There are (2) two delivery methods (Just-In-Time (JIT) and Direct Vendor Delivery (DVD)) utilized to support DLA customers' requirement for orthopedic "procedural packages". Under the JIT delivery method, the Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs) will call the sales representative when a surgery is scheduled to discuss the case, make a product selection and inform him or her of the surgery date and time. The manufacturer's representative will transport the "procedural package" to the designated site at the scheduled time. The representative may be requested by the MTFs to have in their possession a number of "back-up" components available to the physician during the entire procedure. Under the DVD method, MTFs may order product in advance of a scheduled surgery or purchase replacement inventory on an as needed basis. Under this method all items are packaged for shipment to the delivery point cited on the purchase order. This solicitation also contains an on-site personnel requirement for the contractor to provide advice and guidance to physician's before, during and after implantation of the device at the request of the Medical Treatment Facility. Technical support shall be available twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. Market Research has revealed that there are no other manufacturers or distributors other than Zimmer who can provide DoD hospitals with the complete Zimmer "Procedural Package" (Zimmer Orthopedic implants, use of the instrumentation sets, orthobiological products and the auxiliary products) at the required time for surgery and be available on-site if needed to answer questions on all these products. The Zimmer Sales Representatives are experts on Zimmer's products and are a vital part of helping to ensure that the patient is getting the necessary treatment. Only Zimmer has these capabilities. Zimmer will have their product line loaded in the DLA Troop Support Medical Electronic Catalog (ECAT). All Orders, Order Acknowledgements and Invoice transactions are required to be electronic. Items will be delivered to various Department of Defense (DoD) research centers, hospitals, and clinics, and any federal customer participating in this program. The term of the contract will be a one-year Base Period and four one-year unilateral Option Periods. This procurement has an estimated value of approximately $6.3 Million for the Base Period and the first option period (if exercised), $6.4 million each for the second and third option periods (if exercised), and $6.5 million for the fourth option periods (if exercised), for a total of approximately $32 million over the five-year life of the procurement. Solicitation SPE2DE-15-R-0001 is expected to be issued June 01, 2015 and can be found on the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) at https://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/. The point of contact is John R. Jackson, DSCP-FSCB, 215-737-0850, john.r.jackson@dla.mil. The solicitation will not become available until the solicitation issue date.
