Description

(i)This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Pursuant Authority 6.302-1 (C), Brand Name and FAR 11.105 Items peculiar to one manufacturer. (ii)The combined synopsis/solicitation number is VA249-17-Q-0983. It is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). (iii)The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular FAC 2005-94 and 2005-95, effective 01/19/17. (iv) The combined synopsis/solicitation is using a cascading set-aside strategy. The evaluation of offers received in response to the solicitation will use a tiered or cascading order of precedence. Tiered evaluation of offers, also known as cascading evaluation of offers, is a procedure used in negotiated acquisitions when market research is inconclusive for justifying limiting competition to small business concerns or sub-categories of small business concerns. The contracting officer (1) Solicits offers from both small and other than small business concerns that will be evaluated in the following tier order: service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB); veteran-owned small business (VOSB); all other small business concerns; other than small business. (2) If an award or a sufficient number of awards cannot be made at the first tier, evaluation of offers will proceed at the next lower tier until an award or a sufficient number of awards can be made. Offeror must be listed and certified in www.Vetbiz.gov, if an SDVOSB/VOSB, and must be registered in System for Award Management (SAM) www.SAM.gov prior to being considered for Award. The NAICS is 611430, Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing, Business size standard is $11 million. (v)(vi) James H. Quillen,VA Medical Center s Education branch under a VHA Opioid Reduction Initiative and VHA Blueprint item V supported by a Rural Simulation Grant seeks the Brand Name Listed Items for the following purpose: Items are compact and portable units to teach needle and catheter placement for ultrasound guided peripheral nerve block anesthesia procedures with interactive patient via USB to Windows based laptop. Market research limited the scope to these Brand Name Items only due in large part to (1) aligning with current products in use at the facility; (2) filling an existing void in the current training program to which no other competitor products meet complete nerve block simulation capability; (3) simulated patient responses to nerve block via a windows-based computer; and, (4) Item / Portability dimensions meet facility s current available space without modifications to the facility. Market research of competitor items and their inapplicability to this requirement follows: -Blue Phantom s regional anesthesia ultrasound training block was (1) not of natural skin color; (2) does not have anatomical parts or shapes similar to human anatomy; (3) does not provide realistic reactions or portable ultrasound device. -Simulab s products were (1) specific to only two body areas; (2) too large for storage space, and limited portability; (3) cost prohibitive when compared to Halyard s Block-in-a-box products. -CAE Healthcare s Sciatic Nerve Regional Anesthesia Ultrasound Training model does not cover the full scope of training capability as Halyard s Block-in-a-box product line.
