STATEMENT OF NEED

Modular Shelving Storage System

GENERAL: The James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital, 13000 Bruce B. Downs Blvd, Tampa, Florida 33612, has a requirement for replacement shelving. This shelving system will be placed in the Operating Room (O.R.).

SCOPE: The characteristics that these modular storage systems provide over others is that they have full adjustable shelving making it more user friendly as opposed to those cabinets that have pre-set shelves. By having the ability to customize these storage systems to customer’s need, they provide optimal use of space, thus decreasing the amount of cabinets needed to hold the same amount of supplies. This also equates to taking up less space in the storage room/core areas.

ESTIMATED QUANTITIES: Below is a diagram of the O.R. center core that will completely utilize the shelving system. The other core will not utilize as many due to the layout.

SPECIFIC NEED/ SALIENT CHARACTERISTIC’S:

These storage systems are made of aluminum with casters, making them lighter so the O.R. staff can move them with ease if needed, i.e., HVAC shutdowns. The shelving units are comprised of adjustable rails to place the bins of various depths to one’s liking. They come as single, double or triple rack units. The storage system provides clear see through bins to be able to identify supplies faster when retrieving supplies.

PLACE OF PERFORMANCE: James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital, 13000 Bruce B. Downs Blvd, Operating Room center cores, second floor, Tampa, FL 33612.

DELIVERY SCHEDULE: All items to be delivered with complete onsite assembly and installation within 30 days of purchase order processing and order placement.

WARRANTY OF EQUIPMENT: Manufacturer warranty and any additional warranty provided by contract awardee.
