All interested offerors will have to respond to the solicitation announcement in addition to responding to this sources sought announcement. The Veterans Affairs, VA medical center, Cleveland, VISN 10, is seeking sources for a potential contract to provide speech recognition technology, software, to support the clinical information system and clinical documentation. Radiologists in radiology service and physicians in nuclear medicine in the Veterans healthcare system of Ohio at the Chillicothe, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus and Dayton facilities will use speech recognition technology.

Must be received in writing no later than 12:00 p.m. Local time on 1 July 2004. Telephone responses will not be accepted. Firms responding to this announcement, which fail to provide all of the required information, cannot be used to help the government make the acquisition decisions, which is the intent of this synopsis. This notice is to help the VA medical center in determining potential sources only. No solicitation is currently available. All firms responding to this sources sought notice are advised that their response to this notice is not a request to be considered for a contract award. If a solicitation is issued, it will be announced later in the FEDBIZOPPS and all interested parties must respond to that solicitation announcement separately from the responses to this announcement. A response to this sources sought synopsis is not a request to be added to a prospective bidders list or to receive a copy of the solicitation.
