Description

1. Introduction This is a Request for Information (RFI)/Sources Sought Notice (SSN). The Defense Health Agency (DHA) is conducting market research to determine if qualified businesses exist that can provide Reagent/Rental for two fully automated, random-access analyzers for 59th Medical Wing, Lackland Air Force Base, TX. This publication seeks to learn more about potentially capable vendors. This is not a solicitation, nor is it a request for proposals. This notice is for informational and planning purposes only and does not constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that a solicitation will be issued. The Government is not obligated to award a contract as a result of this notice. 2. Program Details The 59 MDW has a potential requirement for two analyzer systems meeting, or exceeding, the technical specifications below. The system must be designed for high-volume laboratories, capable of testing up to 25 different analytes from a single sample tube. Must have a test menu that includes over 50 assays for autoimmune, infectious disease, and specialty immunoassay testing. Must streamlines workflow with high throughput (up to 1,200 results/hour), rapid time-to-first result (45 minutes), and broad assay capability in autoimmune and infectious diseases. The system must offer a significant reduction in labor costs and improved patient care through faster, more detailed diagnostic information. Salient Characteristic of the Analyzer requirement: Physical Dimensions (space is extremely limited) Height: no larger than 4.4' Width: no larger than 4'3” Depth: no larger than 2'10” Operational clearance approximately 3' Minimal System Maintenance: Less than 10 minutes per day Automated weekly maintenance requires 30 minutes or less Electronic tracking of required maintenance tasks Ensures maintenance is completed when due Minimal hands-on time and labor devoted to maintenance procedures Test Specifications-MMRV Assay Specificity Measles IgG 100% (93/93) Mumps IgG 100% (83/83 Rubella IgG 97.6% (123/143) Varicella zoster 100% (143/143) Assay Sensitivity Measles IgG 94.6% - 95.7% Mumps IgG 98.1%–98.8% Rubella IgG 94%–98.8% Varicella zoster 92.2%–96.8% Required Consumables for Analyzers MMRV IgG100 tests | QTY: 450 Vessel Reaction 1000 bag | QTY: 60 Bag Waste Biohazard 14x19 | QTY: 66 Sheath Fluid 2 PA | QTY: 36 Wash Buffer | QTY: 71 Detector Calibration Pack | QTY: 14 Detector Clean Pack | QTY: 14 Probe cleaning Sol.
