- Description
- Sole Source J&A TITLE: F2MTRP7080AW01, Sole Source Acquisition for the purchase of an Anti Gravity Treadmill. The 4th Contracting Squadron, Seymour Johnson AFB, NC intends to award a sole source purchase order to AlterG Inc., required items to be purchased are: This procurement will be for the purchase of one (1) AlterG M320 anti gravity treadmill and performance shorts for the 352 BA TS which supports the training of Combat Controllers at Pope AFB, NC. The M320 is a variant of the F320 rehabilitation/general fitness anti-gravity treadmill offered by AlterG. This model is equipped with additional medical components and measurement tools for use in hospitals and nursing facilities. APPLICABILITY OF AUTHORITY: This purchase will be made under Simplified Acquisition Procedures as authorized by FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). The purpose of the AlterG anti gravity treadmill is for the rehabilitation of students in combat control training. The AlterG allows patients the ability to safely rehab/train/condition/recondition with limited stress on the body and increased/improved performance. Also the AlterG provides a safe training and rehab environment, increased patient compliance, a decrease in the cost of rehab, and the potential to retain DOD personnel. AlterG uses a specialized, pressurized bag to provide a counterforce to the subject's body weight, reducing their effective weight on the treadmill surface. Additionally, the user can "unweight" and "reweight" themselves in increments of 1% body weight. This feature cannot be found in other unweighting devices. This type of equipment is heavily specialized and does not have salient characteristics that can be matched in the commercial marketplace. Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract lies solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive requirement. The closing date for this synopsis is 16 May 2017 at 2:00 P.M EST. The anticipated award date is unknown. For information regarding this purchase, please contact SSgt Devin Powner at: devin.powner@us.af.mil.
