The KCI Wound V.A.C systems are utilized in the treatment of various types of wounds from acute applications such as Open Abdomens, Surgical Dehisced Wounds, Traumatic and Grafts to Chronic such as Stage 3 and 4 Pressure ulcers.

A solicitation/synopsis will not be issued as this is an urgent need, in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-2. This is a one hundred and eight day obligation so as not to disrupt patient care prior to a solicitation/synopsis being posted on eBuy for one base year and four option years. The Veterans' Administration Medical Center, Memphis, Tennessee, is unable to obligate funds from the remainder of Fiscal Year 2011 to the new base year plus four option years contract set to begin in Fiscal Year 2012; therefore, the continued service of Kinetic Concepts, Inc.(KCI) is necessary to finish out Fiscal Year 2011 so as not to disrupt patient care prior to the award of a new contract. This award is for a limited one hundred and eight day period from June 15, 2011 to September 30, 2011 and will be awarded competitively, through GSA/FAA, for a rental contract of wound vacuums to begin on October 1, 2011. The competitively awarded contract will be for one base year and four option years, subject to the availability of funds. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is implemented by FAR 6.302-2 (unusual and compelling urgency) as interruption in service to veterans will adversely impact patient care. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract is solely within the discretion of the Government. This synopsis neither constitutes a Request for Proposal, nor does it restrict the Government to a particular acquisition approach. This is limited source procurement. The NAICS code for this procurement will be 423450 (Medical Dental Hospital Equipment and Supplies) Size standard 100 personnel. This notice is not a request for competitive quotes.
