- Description
- Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 5 (NCO 5) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with ScriptPro USA Inc. (DUNS: 024482296) for a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) contract under their GSA Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract #36F79719D0135. The purpose for this FFP contract is to provide an efficient procurement vehicle for upgrading existing ScriptPro robotic pharmaceutical dispensing system for Pharmacy Service of the Martinsburg VA Medical Center. The FFP contract will be a base and no options. The upgrade shall include smart card scanners, full disk encryption, computer/server/database upgrade, and a workstation with printer. The NAICS code for this contract action is 339112, Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing (SBA Size Standard: 1,000 employees). The Product Service Code for this action is 6515, Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. The required software upgrade is unique to the facilities existing workstations and software. The upgrade can only be performed by ScriptPro due to confidential, proprietary information of ScriptPro software. The Department of Veterans Affairs believes that awarding the proposed contract to another source would require replacing all the currently installed robotic pharmaceutical dispensing equipment and result in unacceptable delays in meeting this legal obligation, as well as substantial additional costs to the government, as the new source gradually developed the skills needed to meet Department of Veterans Affairs' requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for quotations; Interested parties may express their interest by providing a capabilities statement NLT 4 June, 2021 at 12:00 PM EST. The capabilities statement must provide clear and unambiguous evidence to substantiate the capability of the party to provide the required services.

When responding to this announcement, respondents should refer to Announcement 36C24521Q0496 Notice of Intent. If after 4 June, 2021, no viable responses have been received in response to this announcement, Dept of VA shall negotiate solely with ScriptPro. Any prospective contractor must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) in order to be eligible for award. Interested parties are encouraged to furnish information.
