- Description
- Page 1 of 1 The Department of Veterans Affairs, Boston VA Medical Center, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, pursuant to FAR 6.302-1, with Melling Medical for the iCare Centervue MAIA / Micro Perimeter. This equipment is a professional confocal Laser scanning micro-perimetry device, ideal for precise and accurate visual field mapping in human patients and meets the requirements of the VA Merit R&R research award to study visual cortex reorganization and recovery in human subjects with visual field injury. MAIA equipment is the only one that has the capability to perform microperimetry more stably in a greater number of patients because it can perform microperimetry in subjects with pupils as small as 2.5 mm in diameter which is required by the VA. The ability to scan individuals with small pupil diameter is critical to VA experiments, no other equipment has that function. This is a notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any responsible source who believes it is capable of meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement to the contracting office no later than July 26th, 12PM, EST. Interest/capability statements may be sent to Lynn Portman at lynn.portman@va.gov. No telephone responses will be accepted. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
