Description
Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Notice Page 1 of Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Notice *= Required Field Solicitation Number: 36C10G22Q0095 Notice Type: Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Synopsis: COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for brand name or equal commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 12.6, Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and Solicitation for Commercial Items, 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. Solicitation number 36C10G22Q0095 is issued for this combined synopsis/solicitation; this solicitation is being issued as a Request for Quote (RFQ). This combined synopsis/solicitation incorporates provisions and clauses in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2022-06, dated 26 May 2022. Requirement Description: VA has a requirement to purchase Electromyographs to deliver patient care at its VA Medical Centers around the country. Electromyographs (EMG) detect, process, and record the electrical activity of the skeletal muscles. The EMG can indicate the physiologic status of a given muscle or muscle group and of the nerves controlling the muscle's contraction. The EMG charts the electrical activity of a muscle or, more typically, a muscle group (i.e., compound action potentials) at rest and at varying contraction strengths during volitional movement. When the muscle is electrically or mechanically stimulated, the voltage produced is sometimes called the motor unit action potential (MUAP). Although no waveform recorded on an EMG is an absolute indicator, a decline in a muscle's contraction strength, as measured by an overall reduction in EMG activity, may provide early evidence of the onset of a debilitating neuromuscular disorder. A single award Requirements contract will be awarded IAW FAR 52.211-6 Brand Name or Equal in accordance with all terms, conditions, provisions, specifications, and schedule of this solicitation herein. Quotes shall contain the terms for cost/price and technical capabilities of the brand name or equal equipment. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions.

BACKGROUND: The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Non-Expendable Equipment National Program has identified the Electromyographs product line as a candidate for a VA-wide (otherwise referred to as national ) single Requirements contract award. Electromyographs (EMG) detect, process, and record the electrical activity of the skeletal muscles. The EMG can indicate the physiologic status of a given muscle or muscle group and of the nerves controlling the muscle's contraction. The EMG charts the electrical activity of a muscle or, more typically, a muscle group (i.e., compound action potentials) at rest and at varying contraction strengths during volitional movement. When the muscle is electrically or mechanically stimulated, the voltage produced is sometimes called the motor unit action potential (MUAP). Although no waveform recorded on an EMG is an absolute indicator, a decline in a muscle's contraction strength, as measured by an overall reduction in EMG activity, may provide early evidence of the onset of a debilitating neuromuscular disorder. The Contractor must demonstrate the ability to meet all requirements for the solicitation. The objective is to provide Electromyographs to be used by clinicians throughout the VA medical centers and facilities. The period of performance is for a base of 12-months with four 12-month option periods. 2. REQUIREMENT This requirement will be IAW FAR clause 52.211-6, Brand Name or Equal which requires the offeror indicate that each product being offered as an equal product to the Cadwell Electromyographs. For each equal product, the offeror must include a description reflecting the salient characteristics (SC) and level of quality that will satisfy the salient physical, functional, or performance characteristics of the equal product(s) specified in the solicitation. The offeror must also clearly identify the item by brand name (if any) and make/model number. Finally, the offeror must include descriptive literature, such as illustrations, drawings, or a clear reference to previously furnished descriptive data or information available to the Contracting Officer, and clearly describe any modifications it plans to make to a product to make it conform to the solicitation requirements.
