- Description
- The Naval Medical Logistics Command (NMLC) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis (IAW FAR Part FAR 8.405-(6)(b)(1) Only one source is capable of responding). The proposed source is Iris International, 9158 Eton Avenue, Chatsworth, CA 91311. Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD) has a requirement for one (1) analyzer, laboratory, urine, automated with reagents and consumables to be used in various types of urine testing. The system shall be able to do the following: chemistry analyzing, microscopic analyzing, body fluid analyzing, and connection to the laboratory information system. The system shall be capable of providing a complete urinalysis with microscopic exam. The microscopic exam shall be able to be performed on the instrument without external processing. The system shall fully automate the complete routine urinalysis profile, including urine test strip chemistry, specific gravity, color, clarity, and microscopic analysis, providing quantitative or qualitative counts of things such as cells, casts, crystals, and microorganisms. The system shall be able to run at least 200 urine chemistry samples or 70 urine microscopy samples per hour. The system shall be able to complete the following chemistry tests: bilirubin, urobilinogen, ketones, ascorbic acid, glucose, protein, blood, pH, nitrite, and leukocyte esterase; specific gravity, color and clarity simultaneously while using digital flow imaging and automatic particle recognition technology to classify and quantify at least 12 urine particles. The system shall operate with at least the following wavelengths: 472nm, 525nm, and 630nm for test strip photometry. The system shall have a sample rack of at least 10 tubes. The test strip capacity shall be from at least 1 to 300 with auto feeding capability. The system shall allow for onboard storage of at least 9,500 patient results. The system shall have automatic barcode identification to prevent sample mistakes. The system shall be able to perform body fluid cell counts with a minimal sample volume of 2mL or less. The linearity of the system shall be able to count cell quantities down to zero cells present. The system shall allow the user to edit a microscopic exam and differentiate specific cellular material in the sample. The system shall fit into a space equal to or less than the following dimensions: 2 ft height, 6 ft width, and 2.5 ft depth, this includes the computer system and printer. The system shall include service/maintenance after the first year as an option. The electrical requirements of the system are 120 V, 60 Hz, less than 20 Amps, and single phase. This requirement is part of Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) procurement. Only one award will be made as a result of this synopsis. The following components are not available via the FSS: iQ Lamina (4 bottles per case), 800-3102, Qty=8; iQ Control/Focus Set (1 bottle per +/- level Control, 2 bottles per case Focus), 800-3104, Qty=12; iQ Calibrator Pack (4 bottle per kit), 800-3103, Qty=3; Iris Diluent (4 bottles per kit),800-3202, Qty=2; Iris System Cleanser (4 bottle per kit), 800-3203, Qty=1; Body Fluids Lyse (4 bottles per kit), 800-3213, Qty=2; BF Control Level 1 and 2 ( 2 bottles per level), 800-3219, Qty=11; CSF Body Fluid Labels (1000 labels per pack), 868-3002, Qty=1; Serous Body Fluid Labels (500 labels per pack), 868-3010, Qty=1; BF Control Bar Code Labels (1000 labels per pack), 868-3012, Qty=2; Test Tubes for Body Fluids (500 tubes per pack), 800-3215, Qty=5; Urine Chemistry Strips (100 strips per pack), 800-7212, Qty=92; Velocity Wash Solution (4 bottles), 800-7704, Qty=2; CA/CB/CC Chemistry Control Set (2 bottles per +/- level), 800-7211, Qty=8; CalChecks (11 vials), 800-7703, Qty=4; Urine Chemistry Strips (100 strips per pack), 800-7004, Qty=11; CA/CB/CC Control Set, 800-7211, Qty=8. The system and all of the components, shall be compliant with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements to market and deliver medical products for use in the United States of America, even should delivery be requested outside of the United States. The claims made for the product shall comply with the regulations of the FDA with respect to products for marketing and delivery of a medical product for use in the United States of America, even should delivery be requested outside of the United States. The equipment and reagents shall be compliance with OSHA requirements. Vendor shall be an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) authorized dealer, authorized distributor or authorized reseller for the proposed equipment/system such that OEM warranty and service are provided and maintained by the OEM. All software licensing, warranty and service associated with the equipment/system shall be in accordance with the OEM terms and conditions. Upon delivery, the vendor shall be responsible for uncrating the unit/system and transporting it through the facility to the location of intended use for installation, and removing of all trash created in this process. If interim storage is required, the vendor will make arrangements for the storage. There are not set-aside restrictions for this requirement. The intended procurement will be classified under North America Industry Classification System (NAICS) 334516 with a small business size standard of 500. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation document exists for this requirement. However, parties interested in responding to this notice will need to submit technical data sufficient to determine capability in providing the same product. All capability statements received by the closing date of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. If a vendor challenges the basis of this requirement, please email product capability statements (formats for submission: PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel) to Brian Miller at brian.miller4@med.navy.mil. In addition, challenges can be faxed to 301-619-1132 Attn: Brian Miller. Email challenges are preferred. Closing date for challenges is no later than 10:00 AM. ET on 31 May 2012.
