Power Manager is a powerful web based tool for remote monitoring and management of cart power systems on your entire fleet of Howard Medical carts. The application runs as a web service allowing easy access by an administrator anywhere on your network via a web browser. Carts on your network will automatically "call home" to Power Manager, announce themselves and request to be managed and then periodically "call home" to report power system data. Power Manager provides administrators detailed control over power system data logging, alarm thresholds, and notification rules used for real-time alarm notification. Data from cart power systems throughout your fleet is continuously pushed up to and stored in Power Manager for later review. Robust data mining and reporting tools are available to analyze collected cart power system data or you can export the data for further analysis by 3rd party tools. Power Manager also keeps track of the last two wireless access points used by each cart to “call home” thus providing a simple way to track recent movement of carts and to determine the last known location of carts that have gone offline. Power Manager can be used with all Howard carts.

Power Display is a web based tool that runs on the local computing device on each cart providing direct access to power supply data as well as communication with Power Manager. Power Display also provides a small on-screen battery fuel gauge that displays real time battery capacity and charging state. The web interface provided by Power Display allows you to view the cart’s real time power data, power data logs, and event data logs from a browser either locally at the cart or from any location on the network. The Power Display background service, which is transparent to local users, handles communication with Power Manager to periodically “call home” and report power system data.

Med Manager is a powerful web based tool for remote management of cart settings and med drawer access permissions on your entire fleet of Howard Medical carts. The application runs as a web service allowing easy access by an administrator anywhere on your network via a web browser. Carts on your network will automatically "call home" to Med Manager, announce themselves and request to be managed and then periodically " call home" to check for new data. Med Manager provides administrators detailed control over cart behavior and user permissions individually or in groups. Data from carts throughout your fleet is continuously pushed up to and stored in Med Manager for later review including general cart configuration data and detailed information about who accessed which drawers and when. Robust data mining and reporting tools are available to analyze cart, user, and med drawer access data or you can export the data for further analysis by 3rd party tools. Med Manager also keeps track of the last two wireless access points used by each cart to “call home” thus providing a simple way to track recent movement of carts and to determine the last known location of carts that have gone offline. Med Manager can be used with all Howard carts that include electronic locking storage and can be used with X series carts with or without storage.

Med Display is a Windows application that runs on the local computing device on each cart providing direct access to local med drawer cabinets, cart settings, audit records, and drawer calibration. The Med Display background service, which is transparent to local users, handles communication with Med Manager and periodically “calls home” to report any new audit data and retrieve any pending cart updates.

By submitting an offer, the prospective contractor represents that it is an eligible and certified SDVOSB as defined in this clause, 13 CFR 121, 125, and 128, and VAAR subpart 819.70.

(d) Agreement/LOS certification. When awarded a contract action, including orders under multipleaward contracts, an SDVOSB agrees that in the performance of the contract, the SDVOSB shall comply with requirements in VAAR subpart 819.70 and SBA regulations on small business size, and government contracting programs at 13 CFR part 121 and part 125, including the non-manufacturer rule and limitations on subcontracting (LOS) requirements in 13 CFR 121.406(b) and 13 CFR 125.6. For the purpose of limitations on subcontracting, only certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database (including independent contractors) shall be considered eligible and/or ‘‘similarly situated’’ (i.e., a firm that has the same small business program status as the prime contractor). An otherwise eligible firm further agrees to comply with the required LOS certification requirements in this solicitation (see 852.219–75 or 852.219–76 as applicable). These requirements are summarized as follows:

(1) Services. In the case of a contract for services (except construction), the SDVOSB prime contractor will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database (excluding direct costs to the extent they are not the principal purpose of the acquisition and the SDVOSB/ VOSB does not provide the service, such as airline travel, cloud computing services, or mass media purchases). When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the service portion of the contract.

(2) Supplies/products.

(i) In the case of a contract for supplies or products (other than from a non-manufacturer of such supplies), the SDVOSB prime contractor will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database. When a contract includes both supply and services, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the supply portion of the contract.

(ii) In the case of a contract for supplies from a non-manufacturer, the SDVOSB prime contractor will supply the product of a domestic small business manufacturer or processor, unless a waiver as described in 13 CFR 121.406(b)(5) has been granted. Refer to 13 CFR 125.6(a)(2)(ii) for guidance pertaining to multiple item procurements.

(3) General construction. In the case of a contract for general construction, the SDVOSB prime contractor will not pay more than 85% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database.

(4) Special trade construction contractors. In the case of a contract for special trade contractors, no more than 75% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, may be paid to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database.

(5) Subcontracting. An SDVOSB subcontractor must meet the NAICS size standard assigned by the prime contractor and be certified and listed in the SBA certification database to count as similarly situated. Any work that a first tier SDVOSB subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the percent of subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. For supply or construction contracts, the cost of materials is excluded and not considered to be subcontracted. When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the portion of the contract with the preponderance of the expenditure upon which the assigned NAICS is based. For information and more specific requirements, refer to 13 CFR 125.6.

(e) Required limitations on subcontracting compliance measurement period. An SDVOSB shall comply with the limitations on subcontracting as follows:

[] By the end of the base term of the contract or order, and then by the end of each subsequent option period; or [] By the end of the performance period for each order issued under the contract.

(f) Joint ventures. A joint venture may be considered eligible as an SDVOSB if the joint venture complies with the requirements in 13 CFR 128.402 and the managing joint venture partner makes the representations under paragraph (c) of this clause. A joint venture agrees that, in the performance of the contract, the applicable percentage specified in paragraph (d) of this clause will be performed by the aggregate of the joint venture participants.

(g) Precedence. The VA Veterans First Contracting Program, as defined in VAAR 802.101, subpart 819.70, and this clause, takes precedence over any inconsistencies between the requirements of the SBA Veteran Small Business Certification Program and the VA Veterans First Contracting Program.

(h) Misrepresentation. Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 8127(g), any business concern, including all its principals, that is determined by VA to have willfully and intentionally misrepresented a company’s SDVOSB status is subject to debarment from contracting with the Department for a period of not less than five years (see VAAR 809.406–2 Causes for Debarment).
