- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.The proposed contract action is for AcuDose-Rx Medicine Dispensing Equipment for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 'Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements'. The use of a brand name specification is essential to the Government's requirements and precludes consideration of a product manufactured by another company because this equipment is being procured for the expansion of the current AcuDose-Rx System already installed at the San Francisco VA Medical Center. These devices must be compatible with the current AcuDose-Rx system since they are being used to expand point of care medication delivery by dispensing more medications to different areas of the hospital. Since the equipment being procured must be compatible with the current system, only AcuDose-Rx cabinets will meet the requirement as no other product currently on the market is compatible with this system. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received prior to September 11, 2008 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
