The inventory will include the following equipment asset classes: Biomed Testing Equipment and Service Laptops Carts and Cabinets (biological safety cabinets, fume hoods, etc.) Computers-on-Wheels (including the cart) Exam & Procedure Tables, Beds, Chairs, and Stretchers/Gurneys Health & Fitness Equipment Lab Equipment RO Water Systems (hemodialysis and lab) Lasers Therapeutic/Diagnostic Equipment Physiological Monitors Telemetry Transmitters Parameter Modules Eye Equipment Sterilization/Disinfecting Equipment Ventilators Nurse Call System (Nurse s station desk phone) Autonome Environmental Control Units (ECU s) Building 150 only Patient Lifts (portable and ceiling mounted) Biomed-managed physical servers, switches, and Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS s) (as identified by Biomed staff) Pumps (e.g., Suction Pumps, Feeding Pumps, Infusion Pumps) Patient Scales Pharmacy equipment (ScriptPro equipment, Omnicell cabinets, etc.) Glucometers and handheld blood analyzers Ear wash stations Imaging and Radiology Equipment Scopes (Note: Contractor will not remove scopes from sterile packaging or touch contaminated scopes) 2.B. Controlled or moveable assets will also be inventoried and individually tagged. Controlled Assets are defined as serialized items that cost less than the inventory threshold but are typically inventoried. Controlled assets include, but are not limited to the following asset classes: Information Technology: Desktop (PC s) Laptops Tablets Monitors Laser Printers Supporting Network Hardware Barcode scanners 2.C. Assets excluded (out of scope) include: Non-medical equipment (unless specifically identified above) Thermometers Manual Blood Pressure Cuffs VPS Check-in kiosks Computers and Monitors with EE Tags specifying EIL# 780-789, except Computers-on-Wheels Hand tools Assets stored in boxes or packaging 2.D. Specific Tasks 2.D.1. Data Capture. The following data will be captured for each inventoried item: Asset Tag Number (i.e. EE#) Equipment Description Facility/Location o Building Number o Room Number Manufacturer Model Number Model Name Equipment Category Serial number (if available) Biomed inspection tag (if applicable) o Last date of inspection o Next inspection due date Parent-Child Relationship (associated computers, monitors, printers, etc.) Equipment Networked (Y/N) if identifiable by LAN cable or antenna. Port # to which equipment is connected (if equipment is networked and Port # is visibly identified) 2.D.1.A. The contractor will make every attempt to capture the serial number for each serialized item. The contractor personnel will not risk interfering with component operation. No components will be unplugged, removed from racks, etc., in order to gain access to the serial number. 2.D.2. Communication. The contractor will contact the COR immediately to resolve any issues. If the issue is not pressing, the contractor Project Manager will communicate with the COR on a daily basis and present the COR with a status to include completed/inventoried locations and/or departments as well as any issues that may require resolution. 2.D.3. Asset Tagging. 2.D.3.A. The contractor will scan existing property tags and capture descriptive data pertaining to each asset. If the contractor identifies an asset that meets the project scope but does not have a property tag affixed, the contractor will apply a property tag (provided by the contractor) as a placeholder (with a unique identifier and tracked on the inventory spreadsheet) until VA Long Beach can generate an EE# tag (example below) assigned to the asset. VA Long Beach will then apply the EE Tag to the item at a later date. 2.D.3.B. Tags will be placed in standardized locations that allow for ease of future rescans, but not interfere with proper operation of equipment. It must be noted that tag placement is not always possible for every item (i.e. flexible endoscopes, etc.). The following describes the typical tag placement protocol: Tag all items, where tag placement is possible, without interfering with operation. If an identification tab is present on equipment, the contractor will place property tag on the identification tab. If tag placement is not possible (i.e., a tag may interfere with equipment operation, or the item is not conducive for a tag to be applied), the contractor will inventory the item without an actual property tag being placed on the item. A system generated asset number is assigned to the item and all descriptive data pertaining to the item is collected. 2.D.4. Data Reconciliation 2.D.4.A. Upon completion of the inventory, the data will be reviewed for any possible anomalies such as duplicate or missing data. This data will then be used for post processing and report generation. 2.D.4.B. The contractor will perform a data reconciliation, where the physical inventory data is reconciled against VA Long Beach s current clinical equipment inventory listing. Data Reconciliation is an automated process where items are matched by a unique identifier. The first step is to match items by an existing asset tag number (if applicable). The second matching criteria used will be the item s serial number. 2.D.4.C. The contractor will utilize the VA-MDNS Guidance List (Attachment A) to match the Manufacturer-Model pairing to Equipment Category, in order to align with VA naming standards for medical equipment. 2.D.5. Documentation 2.D.5.A. Upon completion of the project, VA Long Beach will be provided with the following: Inventory data in electronic spreadsheet format or flat file format. The following reconciliation reports derived from a data reconciliation of physical inventory to current VA Long Beach asset list: Matched Items: physically inventoried assets that match directly to items on the current VA Long Beach asset list. Unmatched ledger Items: items on the current VA Long Beach asset list that were not located during the physical inventory. Unmatched Physical Items: items identified during the physical inventory that are not identified on the current VA Long Beach asset list. 2.E. Contractor Qualifications: Contractor must submit proof of having at least 5 years of experience in conducting physical inventory of medical equipment in a healthcare setting to be considered for award. Failure to submit documentation of competencies in the following areas will be considered a non-responsive bid and contractor will not be considered for award. 2.F. Changes. The awarded Contractor is advised that only the Contracting Officer, acting within the scope of the contract has the authority to make changes which affect the contract in terms of quality, quantity, price or delivery. In the event the Contractor effects any such change at the direction of any person other than the Contracting Officer, the change shall be considered to have been made without authority and no adjustment shall be made in the contract price to cover any increase in costs incurred as a result thereof. 2.G.
