Interested parties may submit capability statements by 4:00 PM EST on September 18, 2024, to Lu Chang at lu-chang.lu@nih.gov, as this is not a request for proposal and the statutory authority for this sole source requirement is based on the unique nature of the equipment and services provided by KR Wolfe Inc. and Hillrom/Baxter.

    The document outlines the procurement and installation of 18 new 2nd Boom Arms for a Tandem Boom system at the 3SW ICU unit in Bldg. 10 CRC. Initiated in 2018, the project aims to replace existing respiratory boom systems currently deemed inadequate by users. Delays due to COVID made it necessary to issue a new request for the purchase, as a change order with the original purchase order is unfeasible. The scope includes replacing 6 previously installed boom arms and installing new arms on the remaining systems. Key objectives involve ensuring the functionality of the new equipment, which necessitates the deinstallation and reinstallation of medical gas, electrical, and telecommunication lines, along with recertification of gas lines upon installation. This project reflects a focused effort to enhance medical equipment efficiency and safety in response to user feedback, emphasizing the importance of collaborative procurement processes within government operations.
