- Description
- The Veterans Affairs National Acquisition Center (VANAC) intends to negotiate a sole source, Firm Fixed Price, National Mandatory contract with one base-year and four one-year option periods with Passy-Muir Inc. of Irvine, California. This procurement is for the Passy-Muir Speaking Valves that provide the ?no-leak? or ?closed system? and has received FDA approval for both improving swallowing and restoring speech in patients with tracheostomy tubes. The Passy-Muir speaking valves being sought for this national contract are: PMV 005, PMV 2020, PMV 2000, PMV 2001, and the PMV 007. Based upon the above, we believe that the Passy-Muir Inc. products (stated above) are the only type products that meet the VA?s requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. Any firm that believes it can meet the requirements may give written notification to the Contracting Officer within ten calendar days from the date of publication of this notice. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail, to demonstrate the firm?s capability to provide the specific FDA approval and meet the above requirements (i.e. no-leak or closed system). Information can be sent to the Contracting Officer at: VA National Acquisition Center, P.O. Box 76, Hines, IL 60141 (attention: John Callahan). No telephone requests will be accepted. Responses received will be evaluated however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. If no responses are received, the VANAC will proceed with the sole source contract.
