The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a fixed price contract with a twelve (12) month base year to Cook Medical, LLC (Cook Medical), Bloomington, IN 47404 on a sole source basis to provide drainage tubes and catheters to the Interventional Radiology department at the NIH Clinical Center (CC). Interventional Radiology is responsible for all the image-guided procedures in the Radiology and Imaging Sciences within the CC. Interventional Radiology services are crucial to the care and treatment of patients throughout the CC. The image-guided therapy section has a minimally-invasive, image-guided oncology initiative that includes basic bench, in vivo, engineering, and clinical research, combining multimodality electromagnetic tracking and on-line navigation tools to improve accuracy and outcome. Other areas of clinical activity in image-guided therapy include heat activated targeted drug delivery, image-guided ablation with RFA, microwave, or HIFU, percutaneous injection gene therapy, serial biopsy, thrombolytic therapy, re-opening of vasculature, and Interventional Oncology. Cook Medical�s catheters and drainage tubes are currently used by the Interventional Radiology department and are compatible with the catheters and wires that the department presently employs for these procedures; which make for efficient and successful procedures.� The items are being ordered to replenish the depleting stock items currently supplied by Cook Medical and are essential for the physicians to perform needed and approved protocols and patient care. Cook Medical is the department�s physicians� preferred source for this requirement based on specificity, application, and the urgent need of these catheters and drainage tubes. This acquisition is being conducted using policies unique to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13 � Simplified Acquisition Procedures, Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1), For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstance of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available.� Contracts awarded using FAR Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures are exempt from the requirements of FAR Part 6-Competition Requirements.
