HDI 4000 ATL ULTRASOUND UNIT

The US Naval Hospital in Guam plans to negotiate a sole source contract with Pacific Biomedical Services Inc. for the preventive maintenance of a government-owned HDI 4000 ATL Ultrasound unit, located in the Ob/Gyn Clinic on the third floor of the A-wing. This contract will begin on October 8, 2001, and run through September 30, 2009, with two additional option years available. The sole source award is justified under FAR 6.302-1 and 13.106-1(b) to ensure that the maintenance adheres to the manufacturer's standards, specifically the ATL equipment. No competitive solicitation will be issued as this is intended to be a direct award. The contract falls under a total small business set-aside, with the solicitation number N68096-09-RC-90036, and pertains to NAICS code 423450. The place of performance is Agana Heights, Guam, with the Department of Defense, Naval Medical Research, Training and Clinic (NMRTC Guam) acting as the contracting agency. Jocelyn T Layson-Castillo is the designated purchasing agent and the primary point of contact for this procurement. This action is not a request for quotations, and the contract ensures continued operational readiness of critical medical diagnostic equipment at this facility.
