Solicitation Questions & Answers for Surgical Instrument Maintenance Service Contract Question:

1. In reviewing the instrument list, we found that the list also includes items that are not typically serviced in the mobile lab, nor are these items general instrumentation that might require offsite repair. These items include rigid/flexible endoscopes, light cords, power handpieces etc. We are assuming these pieces of equipment were included with the inventory list as it was pulled from an instrument/tray tracking system. Should we assume these items would not be part of the annual service agreement for tray maintenance? For reference, here are some of the scopes that were included on the list. Please note we do have the capability to repair this equipment.

Da Vinci 8mm 30 Degree Scope

Da Vinci 8mm- 0 Degree Scope

Da Vinci 12mm Stapler 30 Degree Curved Tip

Flexible VIDEO Ureteroscope URF- V2R (Olympus)

Digital Flexible Video Ureteroscope

Olympus Flexible Cystoscope CYF-5R

Answer: None of the items listed above will be included in the monthly repairs for Brooklyn or Manhattan SPS. Disregard these items from the list.
