- Description
- 1. SCOPE OF WORK: The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Non-Expendable Equipment (NX) National Program has identified the Surgical Saws, Bone, Cordless product line as a candidate for inclusion in the National Equipment Catalog (NEC). This will be accomplished via the awarding of multiple Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs). Surgical Saws, Bone, Cordless are used with powered handpieces in a wide variety of procedures for precision transverse and wedge osteotomies (incisions or transections of the bone). There are three basic types of bone saws: reciprocating, oscillating, and sagittal. Reciprocating saws are used primarily for transverse osteotomies of the large bones in the extremities and for small-bone-sculping procedures (e.g., excising bone tumors or bone spurs). Sagittal and oscillating saws are used for precise osteotomies. The BPA holder must demonstrate the ability to meet all requirements for the solicitation. The objective is to provide Surgical Saws, Bone, Cordless to be used by clinicians throughout the VA medical centers and facilities. The period of performance is for a 60-month ordering period. 2. REQUIREMENT The objective of this procurement is to establish BPAs for Surgical Saws, Bone, Cordless for inclusion in the NEC and nationwide usage. VHA aims to ensure availability and consistency of NX equipment and to obtain volume-based, standardized pricing. VHA desires to continue the practice of achieving cost avoidance while simultaneously balancing clinician considerations for obtaining quality equipment.
