- Description
- Questions/Concerns for ENT Sinus Navigation System / Solicitation #: 36C24721Q0698 / 2237 #: 509-21-2-528-0224 / Acq Plan #: 36C247-21-AP-2564 1) First, I don t see a requirement for a reseller to provide an authorization letter from the manufacturer, nor do I see VAAR 852.212-71. As a reseller, do we need to provide an authorized distributor letter? If you plan to submit a bid, your firm only has to abide by what is actually stated in the solicitation. Nothing is implied. There is not requirement in the procurement for the resellers to provide an authorization letter from the manufacturer. 2) Second, FAR 52.219-33 is marked yes. However, Medtronic is a large manufacturer, so no SDVOSB could provide Medtronic or any other large business equivalent, is that the intent? Is the government expecting 2 or more SDVOSB manufacturers to be able to provide an equivalent? This is a brand name or equal procurement. The above FAR reference was checked in error. At this time there appears to be 2 or more SDVOBS capable of providing at least an equivalent. The SOW only requires Contractors to meet the requirements in the SOW, evaluation factors, and salient characteristics (which are also listed in the SOW). 3) Lastly, the Statement of Work calls out for trade-in of the existing Sterotactic System is the government expecting a trade-in allowance? If so how would be able to assess the present value? Or is the government just looking for the disposal of the existing system? The VA is expecting a trade-in allowance. The budgetary quote provided an estimated $4k credit for trade-in discount. The trade-in is required per the SOW as well as disposal of the existing system as noted. The following are the model/serial numbers for the equipment to receive trade-in credit; EE # 79692, Serial Number N06232679, Model Number STEALTHSTATION S7
