The system has the following features: Pulmonary Gas Exchange (VO2, VCO2); Breath by Breath Technology; Telemetry Data Transmission up to 800m; Indirect Calorimetry; Integrated GPS System; Integrated Oxygen Saturation (SpO2); Integrated 12-lead Stress Testing ECG; and Windows Software for advanced data analysis. The proposed contract action is for equipment which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. This notice of intent is not a request for quotations. However, interested parties who believe they can meet this requirement shall submit technical data, including cost, sufficient to determine compatibility of specified items.
