Description

This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items using Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This acquisition will be made in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6 �Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and solicitation for commercial Items,� as applicable, and as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation (a written solicitation will not be issued) and quotes are being requested. This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2024-04. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 339112 - SURGICAL AND MEDICAL INSTRUMENT MANUFACTURING (size standard: 1000 employees). The requirement is being competed as a Brand Name or Equal (full and open competition) requirement and is NOT a small business set aside. The Solicitation number is RFQ-CC-24-008307 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ). ____________________________________________________________________________________ The National Institute of Health, Clinical Center (NIH-CC, �Program�) is currently using pleurovacs for patient care. Program is looking to standardize a Digital Pleurovac system. The Centese Thoraguard Surgical Drainage System offers integrated suction capabilities to facilitate patient�mobilization, ambulation, and transport under prescribed suction without needing to connect to the wall or separate�suction device. Other functionalities include, but are not limited to; digital fluid measurements with hourly trends for precise assessment of fluid changes, quantitative air leak measurement with history graphs to objectively identify and assess pulmonary air leak compared to conventional ""looking for bubbles"" resulting in safer and sooner removal of chest tubes with fewer CXR, pleural�assessment feature to assess pleural chest tube patency, nonstop safety monitoring to immediately notify care team of any drainage related problems such as: disconnected chest tub, excessive bleeding, kinked line, system knock over, low battery, needless sample port for fluid sample collection without tube puncture as well as active suction level monitoring to ensure proper suction level transmission regardless of drain elevation The NIH is looking to procure 2x Centese Thoraguards Drainage Kits (6 pk) and 6x Centese Digital Pleurovac Modules. Offerors must provide this exact brand of items OR provide an alternative brand of items that are functionally equal or substantially similar, and can meet the following salient requirements: 1. Digital chest drain capable of allowing therapy targets to be set (This improves and increases patient safety via continuous monitoring) 2. Notify users when targets are achieved. (This shortens the time that chest tubes are in place and therefore benefits the patient from a pain standpoint.) 3. Has a digital water seal equivalent (Without water seal setting, this limits the options for management of patients) 4. Measures air leak with a resolution of 1 ml/min from 0-15 ml/min (improves patient safety by ensuring that the leak is truly resolved prior to tube removal) 5. Self-clearing chest tube option. (Clot formation within the tube impedes drainage. Self-cleaning provides on demand clearing of the tube to prevent a blocked line-patient complications) 6. Self-cleaning capabilities across multiple lines. (Post operative thoracic surgery patients can have multiple chest drains in place. The self-cleaning technology allows the user to maintain drain patency and avoid urgent unplanned surgeries as a result of compromised drains) 7. Onsite training 8. 24 hour technical support 9. Able to hang from hospital bed securely 10. Features to prevent unit from tipping over 11. Access port to retrieve samples ____________________________________________________________________________________ Place of Performance or Delivery: Delivery is estimated to be within four (4) weeks of award.
