- Description
- THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE-SOURCE CONTRACT AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. The United Stated Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, IAW FAR 13.5, with HEBI Robotics Inc. 91 43rd Street, Suite 200, Pittsburg, PA 15201. HEBI Robotics is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the ROSIE mobile robotic platform base with omni-directional wheels and attached 6 degree of freedom (DoF) X-Series robotic arm. HEBI Robotic is the only responsible source that can provide the ROSIE mobile base and X-series robotics that can meet the �Virtual Hospital� research efforts for the U.S. Army Telemedicine & Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC) This acquisition is being conducted under FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items, in conjunction with the policies and procedures for solicitation, evaluation and award prescribed in FAR Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Provisions and clauses in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2021-05 are incorporated. The U.S. Army Telemedicine & Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC) intends to procure a firm-fixed-price contract. �The request is to purchase HEBI Robotics, ROSIE and X-Series robotic arm in support of TATRC�s Medical Robotics and Autonomous Systems lab to establish a mobile robotic platform testbed capability to support Virtual Hospital future research efforts. This equipment will support TATRC�s ongoing efforts to design, develop and test new technologies to facilitate a virtual hospital environment necessary in forward operations abroad and emergency situations domestically. The purpose of the ""Virtual Hospital"" effort is to add increased hospital-like capabilities at the point of need to NETCCN platform(s) to increase capability and capacity. Priority �Virtual Hospital� capabilities include interoperability and closed-loop control of medical devices, remote control/automating tasks (monitoring, IV fluids/medication, mechanical ventilation), and resource monitoring. HEBI Robotics is the only robotics platform that fits with the research needs of TATRC with the specifications of customizability and the reconfiguration of robotic links. The configurable design of the X-Series 6-DoF robotic arm aligns with the specifications deemed essential for the research aims of Virtual Hospital technology development. An essential requirement of TATRC�s research is the customizability of robotic arm configurations to quickly adapt to project needs. The intended procurement will be classified under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 333999 with a Small Business Size Standard of 500 employees. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation document will be posted for this requirement. However, parties interested in responding to this notice shall submit technical data, including cost, sufficient to determine capability in providing the same product. All capability statements received by closing of this notification of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
