PAR Excellence Weight-Based Inventory Management System WESTER NORTH CAROLINA VA HEALTHCARE SYSTEM CHARLES GEORGE VA MEDICAL CENTER STATEMENT OF WORK 1.0 Background Veterans Health Administration (VHA) directive 1761(1), dated October 24, 2016, provides policy, mandatory procedures, and operational requirements for implementing an effective Supply Chain Management (SCM) program at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical facilities, Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOCs)/Outpatient Clinics (OPCs), Health Care Centers (HHCs) and Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacies (CMOPs). The Generic Inventory Package (GIP) is the current software being utilized for inventory management of expendable supplies. It is used to manage the receipt, distribution, and maintenance of stock items received for the supply warehouse from outside vendors and distributed to primary inventory points. SCM staff are tasked with ensuring the physical inventory count of stocked supplies matches the inventory system on hand value, eliminating excess inventory, and purchasing supplies in appropriate quantities and at appropriate intervals to avoid shortages. Considerable time and effort are required to monitor the distribution of expendable supplies in primary and secondary inventory/distribution points. Current processes require a SCM staff member to physically report to primary and secondary inventory/distribution points, count/scan expendable supplies and enter a distribution order to replenish stocks. Staffing levels, space constraints and rate of use determine frequency of visits to the primary secondary inventory/distribution points. Human error is the leading cause inventory mismatches, inaccurate data, and stock outs. Stock outs can cause medical procedures to be delayed or canceled. The Charles George VA Medical Center (CGVAMC) intends to acquire a weight-based automated inventory management system to alleviate inventory overages, shortages, and other issues caused by an unautomated process. System is needed to assist Supply Chain Management (SCM) staff with the management of expendable supplies in all primary and secondary distribution points. The CGVAMC lacks the appropriate SCM personnel to operate other types of inventory management systems other than weight based. Because the weight-based system, once established, requires the least amount of human inventory management it is the correct solution for the facility s need based on staffing levels and the volume of commodity items passing through the system. A weight-based system shall seamlessly log the inflow and outflow of supplies and disposables to maximize supply readiness, eliminate double ordering and ensure demand satisfaction. The implementation of such a system will reduce waste and increase the efficiency of the supply chain at all CGVAMC facilities. 1.0 SCOPE Deliver a turn-key weight based automated inventory management system to the CGVAMC facilities to assist SCM staff with the management of expendable supplies in all primary and secondary distribution points. Therefore, the Government will establish a firm, fixed-price, contract for a turn-key weight based automated inventory management system. OBJECTIVE The objective of this contract is to acquire, install, setup & configure the system, and provide operator training for SCM staff. 2.1 This contract is all-inclusive. Prospective offerors should read the requirements carefully to ensure a complete understanding of the contract requirements to ensure their proposal includes all expenses and costs associated with performance related to the contract, including but not limited to travel, per diem, tools & equipment required for installation, transportation, and incidentals. The Government will not reimburse offerors due to a failure on the offeror s part to consider all costs associated with performance on this requirement. 2.2 All tasks associated with this order shall be completed during the CGVAMC s normal business hours, Monday through Friday from 8:00am 4:30pm excluding Federal holidays unless otherwise coordinated with the Contracting Officer s Representative (COR) or SCM staff. The remaining Federal Holidays for calendar year 2022 are as follows: Memorial Day Monday, May 30, 2022 Independence Day Monday, July 4, 2022 Labor Day Monday, September 5, 2022 Columbus Day Monday, October 10, 2022 Veterans Day Friday, November 11, 2022 Thanksgiving Day Thursday, November 24, 2022 Christmas Day Monday, December 26, 2022 Any other day determined by the President of the United States as a Federal Holiday. 2.3 Management & Supervision of Contract Personnel The Contractor shall be responsible for supervising the daily services provided under this contract. The Contractor shall provide the name and contact information for a person designated to manage and supervise performance under this contract to the Contracting Officer (CO) upon award of the contract. The Contractor shall use reasonable care to avoid damaging to the facility and the grounds.
