- Description
- The Defense Logistics Agency - Troop Support is seeking sources capable of providing Boston Scientific Cardiovascular "procedural packages". These "procedural packages" include Cardiovascular Implants, Instrumentation Sets and Auxiliary products (such as the needles for entry, guide wire, etc.) that are necessary for the cardiovascular surgery. The instruments are purchased by the hospital so they are readily available on the shelves. All products offered must be Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved. Cardiovascular products must be delivered "Just-In-Time," "Direct Vendor Delivery", and "Consignment". Under "Just-In-Time" delivery, the Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) calls the manufacturer's field representative who carries the products into the MTF just-in-time for the surgery. The manufacturer's sales representative may bring many sizes and types of implants and auxiliary products to the surgery along with the instrumentation sets. Under the "Direct Vendor Delivery" method an order for products is placed through ECAT and the product is delivered directly to the customer via any transportation carrier. Under the "Consignment" method, an MTF has the products that make up the "procedural set" consigned to their facility. At the request of the MTF, the manufacturer is required to have a qualified representative on site at the MTF's within the timeframe specified by the facility necessary to meet their requirements. The manufacturer's representative provides technical advice and guidance to the physician before, during, and after implantation. Furthermore, technical support is available twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. The Boston Scientific's Sales Representatives are experts on the vendor's products and are a vital part of helping to ensure that the patient is getting the necessary treatment. Sources must have direct control over a sales force that is knowledgeable in Boston Scientific Cardiovascular products. This is a request for information (RFI) and does not commit the U.S. Government to issue a solicitation, make an award, or pay any costs associated with responding to this announcement.
