The Southern Regional Contracting Office at Brooke Army Medical Center plans to award a sole source contract to Qiagen, Inc. for the procurement of hc2 High-Risk HPV DNA Test Kits and associated supplies needed to support Brooke Army Medical Center in Fort Sam Houston, Texas. These test kits represent the only FDA-approved method for testing human papillomavirus (HPV) when used alongside the Pap test for cervical cancer screening in women age 30 and older. The contract’s base period is from October 1, 2011, to September 30, 2012, with an option for an additional 12 months. The goods to be acquired include various quantities of test kits, conversion kits, sealing films, disposable tips, plates, pipette tips, reagent troughs, and other laboratory supplies, all contingent upon the availability of fiscal year 2012 funds. Deliveries will be FOB Destination to the Army Medical Training Center at Fort Sam Houston. Interested vendors are required to respond by August 3, 2011, and the contract will be awarded based on a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation. This means that quotes will be assessed primarily on technical acceptability, including compliance with the Government’s specified characteristics, and price. The contract stipulates that if vendors offer products equivalent to the brand name test kits, those products must meet all prescribed functional and performance features and be clearly identified and documented. The sole source approach is justified by the unique FDA approval status of the hc2 High-Risk HPV DNA Test Kits, positioning Qiagen, Inc. as the only qualified provider for this requirement.
