- Description
- Notice of Intent for Neurostar Automated Robotic Stereotaxic Apparatus This contract action is for the acquisition of supplies for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1). The National Institute of Environmental Health Science (NIEHS), Office of Acquisitions (OA) intends to award a single source purchase order to Neurostar GmbH, Kahnerweh 1, Tubingen,Baden-Wurttemberg, 72072, Germany, for the acquisition of a Drill & Microinjection Robot Stereotaxic Instrument. It has been determined that Neurostar GmbH, is the only known responsible source capable of providing the required instrument and no other instrument will satisfy the agency's requirements. The anticipated delivery time is 6 Weeks, ARO. The applicable North American industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 339112 "Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing". Its associated Business Size Standard is 1,000 employees. The Neurostar Automated Robotic Stereotaxic Apparatus offers several highly specialized features that are not available from other sources. The Neurostar Drill & Microinjection Robot with Drill Autostop Function is the only instrument available that has in interconnected automated drill and microinjected module including motorized stereotaxic system. This instrument is the only commercial system that can be modified to support fully automated surgery. Published instructions are available to modify this stereotax so that it can automatically drill holes in the skull and detect when the hole has been completed drilled. This allows this delicate procedure to be completely automated, reducing room for human error that can result in damage to the brain underlying the bore hole. In addition, Neurostar has developed an automated bregma finder that utilizes cameras to find skull landmarks used for determining brain coordinates. This innovative approach will increase the accuracy and reliability of surgeries.
