This contract was awarded by the Department of the Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery to the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation, Inc. (AAMI), a non-profit organization, for an annual subscription to an online database providing standards, recommended practices, and technical information reports for medical and non-medical equipment used at the Naval Medical Center San Diego.
The single-award, firm-fixed-price purchase order has a ceiling value of $77,500 and a period of performance from December 19, 2018 through December 18, 2023. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, as AAMI was determined to be the only source capable of meeting the government's requirements. AAMI has held multiple prior contracts with the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Food and Drug Administration to provide similar subscription and training services related to medical device regulations and healthcare technology programs.
