Annual service contract for the 2nd year. Service manual for the 2000 da Vinci system. On-site technician training is provided. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 339112 and the Government believes that Intuitive Surgical, Inc. is the only manufacture that can satisfy the agency requirements. Therefore, the Government intends to proceed with a sole source procurement for the required supplies and/or services.

To the best of our knowledge, Intuitive Surgical, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA is the only source that provides the above indicated items and features. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. No solicitation document is available and telephone requests will not be accepted. However, any firm that believes it can meet these requirements may give written notification to the Contracting Officer within fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of publication of this synopsis. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail, to demonstrate the ability to comply with the above requirements. Information can be sent to the Contracting Officer, Cincinnati VAMC, 260 E. University Ave, Cincinnati, OH, 45219 or via fax to (513) 475-6334. 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 Cincinnati VA Medical Center will precede with the sole source negotiation with Intuitive Surgical Inc., Sunnyvale, CA.
