- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE - FLOTRAC Page 1 of 1 The RPO East/NCO 6 Contracting Office, Hampton, Virginia, intends to award a sole source purchase order to Edwards Lifesciences, LLC. as a result of the vendor being the only authorized distributor of the HemoSphere Monitoring Platforms (FLOTRAC) System. This device gives the medical staff the capability of individualized patient management across a diversity of medical profiles and care settings. HemoSphere Monitoring Platforms is a commercial off the shelf product designed and manufactured by Edwards Lifesciences LLC. Research has proven that no other manufacturer offers the highly specialized accessories required to upgrade the monitoring platforms. Edwards Lifesciences LLC. instruments are the best and only source able to provide the accessories required to upgrade the current devices. They have no other small business distributors and the only organization legally authorized to distribute this technology. The Asheville VA Medical Center staff needs to continue with the same platforms in use. Adding similar units could disrupt the continuity of care for operations and potentially add more cost to the government as opposed to upgrading existing kits. HemoSphere Monitoring Platforms are a brand name request and with Edwards Lifesciences LLC. as the manufacturer, we will be pursuing a single source firm fixed price award for this procurement. This purchase will be made under Simplified Acquisition Procedures and Other than Full and Open Competition as authorized IAW FAR Part subpart 13.106-1(b)). The anticipated award date is 9 November 2020. Please note that this is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all interested parties who believe they can meet the requirements are invited to submit in writing complete information describing their ability to provide the product/services listed above. Deadline date for the submittals is 6 November 2020 0900 (9am) Eastern Standard Time. A determination by the government not to compete this requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will be considered solely for determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. For information regarding this purchase, contact Donald V. Harris, Contract Specialist, at (757) 726-6089 or donald.harris@va.gov. ITEM DESCRIPTION QUANTITY UNIT 0001 HEMPSCUPG FLOTRAC PRESSURE SMART CABLE UPGRADE KIT.
