121453 O5 - No Intent to Award.docx

This document is a Solicitation Notice of No Intent to Award issued by the State of Nebraska for Solicitation Number 121453 O5, specifically for Nurse Communication Devices. The solicitation, which was originally scheduled for opening on August 12, 2025, with an intended award posting date of September 9, 2025, has been cancelled, and the state will not be proceeding with awarding a contract for the proposed nurse communication devices.

The related state and local contract opportunity provides additional context, revealing that the State of Nebraska's Department of Veterans Affairs was seeking a comprehensive procurement for the Central Nebraska Veterans Home. The original solicitation called for 110 smart screen communication devices and 45 non-screen communication devices, intended to replace the existing DiGi system while integrating with current Rauland V Nurse Call System and patient care reporting systems. The procurement process would have evaluated vendors across three categories: Corporate Overview (25 points), Technical Response (55 points), and Cost Sheet (20 points), with potential additional points for oral interviews. The contract was designed to span four years with options to renew for two additional two-year periods, and included preferences for Nebraska vendors, resident disabled veterans, and businesses in designated enterprise zones.
