AI Contract Overview

The Cleveland Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center plans to acquire an upgraded Optis Mobile System from Abbott Laboratories through a sole source procurement, citing the unique compatibility requirements and the specialized nature of the equipment. This decision is made under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), which allows contracting from a single source when only one supplier is reasonably available. The Optis Mobile System, essential for cardiology procedures in the Cath Lab, provides advanced diagnostic capabilities such as high-resolution and 3D imaging combined with coronary hemodynamic data to enhance PCI treatments for vascular disease. The existing system is approaching the end of its service life, and the replacement must maintain continuity with Abbott-manufactured catheters and the integrated Optis software to ensure patient safety and system compatibility. The government invites other potential suppliers to submit information about their capabilities by mid-December 2019 to determine if competition is feasible, though the ultimate decision remains with the contracting office. No formal solicitation is currently issued, and all questions should be directed via email to the designated point of contact. This procurement falls under NAICS code 334510, with a small business size standard of 1250 employees. The acquisition aims to sustain the hospital’s ability to provide state-of-the-art cardiovascular diagnostics and treatment equipment while ensuring safety and efficiency in patient care.

36C25020Q0185 SPECIAL NOTICE NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE Optis Mobile System The Cleveland Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center, 10701 East Blvd Cleveland, OH 44106 intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.1061(b)(1)-Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available. The NAICS code is 334510 with a small business size standard of 1250. The VA intends to solicit and negotiate with Abbott Laboratories Inc 6300 Bee Cave Road Bldg 2 Ste 100 Austin, TX 78746. VAMC Cleveland Cardiology is requesting replacement of the current OPTIS system in use in the Cath Lab with the latest model, to include all installation kits and accessories. The St. Jude OPTIS System offers physicians an efficient way to optimize PCI procedures for the treatment of vascular disease by combining diagnostic tools designed to improve patient outcomes into one portable device. The OPTIS Mobile System is designed to help physicians make improved stenting decisions based on high-resolution and three dimensional OCT views of coronary anatomy while simultaneously mapping their exact location via angiogram. This system also offers physicians detailed coronary hemodynamic (circulatory) information during PCI. This technology has been shown to improve outcomes and reduce health care costs over traditional diagnostic imaging tools. The model in use at this time is coming up on end of life. This is a direct replacement/upgrade and continuity of equipment type is required. Cardiology is currently standardized on the usage of catheters manufactured by Abbott, and Optis integrated system and the mobile system with Optis software are contraindicated, where introduction of any catheter would constitute a threat to patient safety. Other persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement by Monday December 16, 2019 at 4pm est. Such capabilities information will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. All information shall be furnished at no cost or obligation to the Government. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. No solicitation is available at this time. All inquiries must be submitted by email to Tiera Sims at contact@example.gov. Enter RFQ 36C25020Q0185| Optis Mobile in the email subject line.
