Solicitation 36C24420Q0117 | Water Testing for Dental Clinic Services

Pittsburgh VA Medical Center

# Vendor Question Government Response

1 What is being tested for? Typically, we have tested dental locations for HPC (Heterotrophic Plate Count).

Is that what you want us to quote on?

We are required to have water lines tested for total “colony forming units” or CFUs.

2 The SOW says there are 18 dental chairs with 6 lines and 1 chair with 5 lines. This is a total of 113 samples per quarter (452/year). It also states that up to 5 retests may be needed per quarter, increasing the quarterly amount to 118. This would be a total of 472 samples per year. The Price schedule has only 448 samples per year. Can you please confirm the correct quantity and update the price schedule or SOW accordingly?

We have 17 operatories with 6 lines, plus 2 operatories with 5, for a total of 112 DUWL tested each cycle. If results are favorable, no additional testing is necessary, but if any results are above 500 CFU it requires re-testing. This is hard to predict. We only had to re-test about 18 lines over the past two years. The quantity is correct and will not be changed at this time.

All quotes must be received by December 13th, 2019 (12 NOON EST) to be considered for award. Send to Contract Specialist Amanda Saunders at Amanda.saunders@va.gov
