5. There are price sheets for all members of the VISN 8; however, the combined synopsis document states that deliveries should be made to the West Palm VA, could you please clarify if the RFQ will be for All of VISN 8 facilities or solely for West Palm site?

Answer: for all of VISN 8 facilities, each facility will submit a Separate Order form from the VISN 8 Contract, and that Order will contain the shipping information. This is a VISN 8 contract.

6. Are there any sites that use the MedRad vial for FDG doses? That is a different product code for us, so I just want to confirm.

Answer: We are not requiring a specific dollar amount for the bonding cost we just require that the driver be bonded.

8. As it stands, we are able to service most but not all locations. Would this be given a single award (aka’ all or none’) or would we be able to actively bid for Orlando, Vierra, Tampa, Miami, West Palm, and Bay Pines only? If quotes are received and it shows that one vendor can provide for all locations this will be a single award contract.

Answer: Contractor shall be able to provide all or none, per pricing schedule.

If no vendor quoting can provide services for all stations, then a multiple award contract will be considered.

Answer: The CLINS 64-67 will be removed from this request for proposal based on the Information that they are proprietary products with only one distributor.
