This SS is part of a Government market research effort to determine the scope of industry capabilities and interest and will be treated as information only. Responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Responses to this SS are strictly voluntary and the Government will not pay respondents for information provided in response to this SS. Responses to this SS will not be returned and respondents will not be notified of the result of the review. Although responses to the questions posed by the Government would be most beneficial to this market research effort. The purpose of this SS is to conduct Market Research to determine an acquisition strategy for the establishment of Healthcare Scanners at the Cleveland Louis Stokes Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center (CLE VAMC). The National Bar Code Medication Administration Scanning (BCMA) industry standard for replacing bar code scanners/readers and wrist band printers is one to two years due to the 24/7 constant use and critical nature of the equipment. The current wireless scanners were purchased in 2016 and have reached the end of their useful life. The equipment to be purchased will replace the medication scanning equipment used by pharmacy, nursing and the respiratory staff in the medical center, the CLC, Domiciliary, the outpatient clinics to provide safe and timely medication administration and documentation for the veteran population. The barcodes are scanned on the veterans wristband and on the every medication they receive. That scanned information is transferred into the medical record BCMA which is the graphical user interface(gui) on top of VistA that is connected to CPRS. The Addendum setup barcode is used. The scanner is set up to accommodate sites that use bar codes to scan comments into BCMA. Only the following scanners can be purchased: Honeywell TCG EX1902HC-FV series cordless scanners (This is the most current scanner available that meets all TRM Specs) Honeywell TCG 1902HHD-0USB-5FVA cordless scanners Honeywell TCG 1900HHD-BCMA tethered scanners Honeywell 1902 cordless series scanners and model 1900 tethered scanners The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 10, is conducting market research to determine if there are a sufficient number of Small Businesses capable of performing the requirements to warrant a set-aside.
