Pre-Solicitation Notice for notice of intent to award a sole source contract. This is not a solicitation. The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to negotiate a sole source contract for parts and repair with Hocoma Inc., 77 Accord Park Dr., Suite D-1 Norwell, MA 02061 for parts and repair on an existing device called the computer-assisted rehabilitation environment (CAREN) system in the Veterans Affairs Pittsburgh Healthcare System (VAPHS) Human Engineering Research Laboratories (HERL), located at 6425 Penn Avenue, 4th Floor, Suite 400, Pittsburgh, PA 15206. The CAREN system is a unique computer design that allows Veterans to test prosthetic devices used for balance in a virtual simulation that mimics rougher terrain, such as walking on a trail, a bumpy sidewalk, up and down hills, or across slopes. Its purpose is to help prevent falls and sustain patients lives. The motion base and transformers malfunctioned rendering the entire device inert. Only certain pieces of the whole system will be replaced.

In the event no practical install dates can be found in this window the vendor will extend the window for up to four-weeks. The Contractor technician will test the CAREN system to ensure full functionality. Upon completing installation of the system, the Contractor shall pretest the entire system. After pretesting the system, the Contractor shall notify the SME that the system is ready for acceptance testing, and that it meets all requirements as specified.
