- Description
- Notice of Intent to Sole Source The Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD) intends to award a sole source purchase order under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b), due to only one source being available to meet the Government's needs, to the C.R. Bard Inc., 8195 Industrial Blvd NE, Covington, GA 30014-1497. Requirement is radioactive seed brachytherapy implant using the Bard Brachytherapy "linked" radioactive iodine-125 seeds to treat prostate cancer. The seed implants require "linked" radioactive iodine-125 seeds for optimal seed distributions. The linked seeds have proprietary dissolvable spacers with recessed-ends that hold the seeds in their preconfigured alignment once implanted but are capable of being modified manually by the Physician during the procedure. Other seed configurations must include "stranded" which are set up in an absorbable, branded suture or other format and cannot be as easily modified by the Physician, and "spaced" which must have blunt-end absorbable spacers that do not hold the seeds in the preconfigured alignment once implanted. The radioactive materials are as follows: Iodine-125 radioactive seeds loaded in sterile needles 1,050 each per year; Iodine-125 Seed Loose in Vial Sterile 150 each per year; Iodine-125 seed Calibrated in Vial Sterile 5 each per year; Shipping - 15 each patient order per year. Items are to be delivered as needed for the base year with four (4) option years. C.R. Bard is the only manufacturer and sole distributor that can provide these salient characteristics mentioned above. Period of Performance: Base Year - May 29, 2016 to May 28, 2017 Option Year 1 - May 29, 2017 to May 28, 2018 Option Year 2 - May 29, 2018 to May 28, 2019 Option Year 3 - May 29, 2019 to May 28, 2020 Option Year 4 - May 29, 2020 to May 28, 2021 This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation document exists for the requirement.
