Brand Name or Equal New Siemens Acuson Sequoia Ultrasound, Delivery, Installation, Training, and Service Agreement, IHS, Phoenix Indian Medical Center

Amendment 6, Questions

1.    During our on-site meeting we discussed the power issues they may have. We all decided that the UPS component would be taken out of the RFP. It is still there. With our ultrasound, we have a battery back-up and power conditioner on board and don’t require the external UPS. It was supposed to be eliminated from the RFP?
a.    We will update scope as follows:  If the ultrasound units are designed with UPS and power conditioners built in the ultrasound units, then no additional external units are required. If the ultrasound units are not designed with UPS or power conditioners then the contractor will need to install fixed UPS and power conditioners for the three Radiology units. External UPS and power conditioners is not required for the Women’s Clinic (OB/GYN) department. 

2.    The OB need they’ve identified seems odd. They say in the word document that they want 3D endo-cavity transducers, but the model they identified, 9EC4 are 2D transducers. In the original main body request they have the 9VE4 which is 3D. Should that be what is quoted?
a.    The Women’s Clinic ultrasound unit will need one 3D OB ultrasound transducer, one 3D transabdominal transducer and one 3D transvaginal transducer.
3.    Also, there are no trans-abdominal transducers requested for the OB need. Is this an oversight or should there be 3D OB trans-abdominal transducers?
a.    The Women’s Clinic ultrasound unit will need one 3D OB trans abdominal transducer.

See attachment Amendment 6 Attachment A - Scope of Work Ultrasound
 

Amendment 5: Change Quanitty, Revise SOW and Price Schedule. 

The purpose of the amendment is chagne quanity for ultrasound from 5-Each to 4-Each.  See attachment Amendment 5 Attachment A - Scope of Work Ultrasound and Amendment 5 Attachment E - Price Schedule.  

All other provisions shall remain unchagned.  

Amendment 4: Extend Offer Due Date

The purpose of this amendment is to extend Offer Due Date to 08/11/2023 and the time shall remain unchanged. 

Amendment 3: Grey Market Prevention Language

a. Gray market items are Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) goods sold through unauthorized channels in direct competition with authorized distributors. This procurement is for new OEM medical supplies, medical equipment and/or services contracts for maintenance of medical equipment (i.e. replacement parts) for IHS Hospitals and/or Medical Centers. No remanufactures or gray market items will be acceptable.

b. Vendor shall be an OEM authorized dealer, authorized distributor or authorized reseller for the proposed equipment and/or services contracts for maintenance of applicable equipment (i.e. replacement parts), verified by an authorization letter or other documents from the OEM, such that the OEM’s warranty and service are provided and maintained by the OEM. All software licensing, warranty and service associated with the supplies, equipment and/or services contracts for maintenance of equipment shall be in accordance with the OEM terms and conditions.

c. The delivery of gray market items to the IHS in the fulfillment of an order/award constitutes a breach of contract. Accordingly, IHS reserves the right to enforce any of its contractual remedies. This includes termination of the contract or, solely at IHS’s election, allowing the Vendor to replace, at no cost to the Government, any remanufactured or gray market item(s) delivered to an IHS hospital and/or medical facility upon discovery of such items
 

Amendment 2: Answer questions and provide responses. 

1.    Is it possible to extend the due date of this solicitation by 3 weeks in order for us to pull the images required?, We have extended Due Date to August 8, 2023 at 4:00 PM MST (AZ Time), see Attachment 2 Questions – Responses and RFQ-23-PHX-29-PIMC Ultrasound Amend-2.  

2.    Where should the CD of the images be sent?  Location, Address, Room#, Name of Individual To Receive CD. Indian Health Service, 40 North Central Avenue, Ste-507, Phoenix, AZ 85004, Attention: Donovan Conley, 602-364-5174, Donovan.Conley@ihs.gov

3.    Can you confirm that both a UPS and surge protector are required for the Ultrasound solicitation? Yes, both are required to protect the units.

4.    As a follow up to question 3, surge protectors are typically permanently installed in procedure rooms and are not mobile. How many rooms require surge protection/UPS’s, and what are those room numbers? Radiology Dept - There are two rooms on the 3rd floor used for ultrasound. 1 room will hold one unit and the 2nd room is larger to hold 2 units on opposite ends. These three units stay in the room and will only be moved in emergency ED cases (rare events). The other two units  will not need UPS or surge protector. These two units can have their UPS and surge protector removed from the solicitation. (Medical Surgical and Women’s Clinic) 

5.    Do you have any Trade-in systems and if you have Trade-ins, please provide the Serial Number and List of Transducers. No trade ins.

6.    Under C. Image Quality.  The List of Images is very specific.  Due to patient confidentiality much of this information can not be provided with the images or as part of a response to your solicitation.  We are recommending that instead of the Image Requirement, Vendors have the opportunity to have a Side-By-Side Demonstration at the facility for over-scanning patients or scanning models in order for PAIHS to get the best understanding of image quality for your patient population.  We are not allowing Side by Side Demonstration for this solicitation.   PIMC will require the images on a CD in DICOM format for viewing on a BARCO screen. Due to the population size of PIMC patients, the product submitted must demonstrate its ability to see anatomy in patients ranging from 300 lbs to 400 lbs. 

7.    Request a 3 week extension. We have extended Due Date to August 8, 2023 at 4:00 PM MST (AZ Time).  

8.    Change quantity from 3-Each to 5-Each, see Attachment A -Scope of Work Ultrasound Amend-2.

PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION FACTORS:  
A. Contractor should have experience as stated in Attachment A, B, C in a private practice and/or hospital for at least the minimum years in the specialty of their field (see Attachment A, B, C).

Offerors without relevant past performance or for whom past performance information is not available, will receive a neutral rating. 

B. Offeror shall submit at least two or more similar or same scope of contracts with government agencies and private industry in terms of quality of work, compliance with performance schedules. In addition, PPIRS and FAPIIS data may be used for evaluations.
