This procurement is to obtain service and maintenance for the 12 i-STAT 1 Analyzer located at Colmery-O'Neil VAMC Campus, 2200 Gage Blvd., Topeka, KS 66622 and Dwight D. Eisenhower VAMC Campus. 4101 South 4th Street, Leavenworth, KS 66048. When an ISTAT blood analyzer breaks down, the contractor will be contacted by our Bio-Med shop to provide a rebuilt replacement analyzer, at a previously negotiated cost, to be used by the Medical Center to replace the defective analyzer.
