Statement of Work

Background This document outlines the necessity for procuring EEG recording equipment to support the Specialized Emerging Consciousness (EC) Program within the Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit at the VA Palo Alto Polytrauma Unit. As one of five nationally recognized Traumatic Brain Injury Centers of Excellence, our facility provides critical care to Active Duty Service Members and Veterans recovering from brain injuries.

A subset of our patients, those undergoing rehabilitation following severe traumatic brain injury resulting in a Disorder of Consciousness, are served by the 90-day acute inpatient rehabilitation Emerging Consciousness (EC) Program. Currently, access to EEG equipment and specialized staff through our Neurology service is limited, hindering our ability to conduct continuous and detailed monitoring critical for comprehensive brain function assessment in our EC patient population.

The EC patients are at high risk for complications, particularly seizures, and EEG can help detect subtle procedural abnormalities that may otherwise go unnoticed, potentially limiting recovery. By acquiring EEG equipment and training staff, our program aims to enhance our capacity to monitor subtle changes in brain function, helping us better understand patient recovery and the effectiveness of our stimulation protocols.

Objectives

1. Procure EEG System: Acquire a state-of-the-art EEG recording system to facilitate continuous and detailed monitoring of patients within the Emerging Consciousness (EC) Program.

1. Hire and Train EEG Technologist: Recruit a qualified EEG technologist and provide comprehensive training to ensure effective use of the equipment and accurate data collection.

1. Implement Clinical Monitoring Protocol: Follow the clinical protocol developed by the attending physician for the frequency and duration of EEG monitoring, ensuring that each patient receives tailored and comprehensive assessment.

Scope This Statement of Work outlines the necessary efforts by the VA Palo Alto Health Care System to procure EEG equipment for clinical use within the Emerging Consciousness (EC) Program. This includes the following:

· EEG Equipment: Procurement of a state-of-the-art EEG recording system specifically designed for clinical application within the EC Program.

· Onsite Training: Comprehensive training sessions provided by the EEG equipment company to ensure that our staff can effectively operate and utilize the system.

· Supplies: Provision of all necessary supplies and accessories required for the operation and maintenance of the EEG system.

The EEG recording system must be delivered directly to the VA Palo Alto Health Care System. Installation and setup will be carried out by the EEG equipment company to ensure proper functionality.

Statement of Required Goods/Deliverables The following list outlines the acquisition requirements for the EEG company.

Technical Specifications for 256 ch EEG system + 16 Physio channels A) Hardware Amplifier -

1) The 256-Channel EEG System must be a single base unit. Ganging/stacking or daisy chaining of sub-amplifiers is not permitted.

2) Amplifier should be upgradable to add the neuromodulation capability for simultaneous EEG and tDCS, tACS, tRNS and tPCS.

3) Amplifier should be upgradable to an MR conditional system as well with just an addition of external Faraday casing (FICS)

4) The 256-channel EEG amplifier must meet the below or better technical specs

a) Input Noise: = 0.9 µV @ 1000 Hz sampling rate

b) A/D Resolution: 24 bit

(i) Name and address of the Contractor;

(ii) Invoice date and number;

(iii) Contract number, line item number and, if applicable, the order number;

(iv) Description, quantity, unit of measure, unit price and extended price of the items delivered;

(v) Shipping number and date of shipment, including the bill of lading number and weight of shipment if shipped on Government bill of lading;

(vi) Terms of any discount for prompt payment offered;

(vii) Name and address of official to whom payment is to be sent;

(viii) Name, title, and phone number of person to notify in event of defective invoice; and

(ix) Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). The Contractor shall include its TIN on the invoice only if required elsewhere in this contract.

(x) Electronic funds transfer (EFT) banking information.

(A) The Contractor shall include EFT banking information on the invoice only if required elsewhere in this contract.

(B) If EFT banking information is not required to be on the invoice, in order for the invoice to be a proper invoice, the Contractor shall have submitted correct EFT banking information in accordance with the applicable solicitation provision, contract clause (e.g., 52.232-33, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer—System for Award Management, or 52.232-34, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer—Other Than System for Award Management), or applicable agency procedures.

(C) EFT banking information is not required if the Government waived the requirement to pay by EFT.

(2) Invoices will be handled in accordance with the Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. 3903) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR part 1315.

(h) Patent indemnity. The Contractor shall indemnify the Government and its officers, employees and agents against liability, including costs, for actual or alleged direct or contributory infringement of, or inducement to infringe, any United States or foreign patent, trademark or copyright, arising out of the performance of this contract, provided the Contractor is reasonably notified of such claims and proceedings.

(i) Payment.—

(1) Items accepted. Payment shall be made for items accepted by the Government that have been delivered to the delivery destinations set forth in this contract.

(2) Prompt payment. The Government will make payment in accordance with the Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. 3903) and prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR part 1315.

(3) Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). If the Government makes payment by EFT, see 52.212-5(b) for the appropriate EFT clause.

(4) Discount. In connection with any discount offered for early payment, time shall be computed from the date of the invoice. For the purpose of computing the discount earned, payment shall be considered to have been made on the date which appears on the payment check or the specified payment date if an electronic funds transfer payment is made.

(5) Overpayments. If the Contractor becomes aware of a duplicate contract financing or invoice payment or that the Government has otherwise overpaid on a contract financing or invoice payment, the Contractor shall—

(i) Remit the overpayment amount to the payment office cited in the contract along with a description of the overpayment including the—

(A) Circumstances of the overpayment (e.g., duplicate payment, erroneous payment, liquidation errors, date(s) of overpayment);

(B) Affected contract number and delivery order number, if applicable;

(C) Affected line item or subline item, if applicable; and

(D) Contractor point of contact.

(ii) Provide a copy of the remittance and supporting documentation to the Contracting Officer.

(6) Interest.

(vi) The interest charge shall be computed for the actual number of calendar days involved beginning on the due date and ending on—

(A) The date on which the designated office receives payment from the Contractor;

(B) The date of issuance of a Government check to the Contractor from which an amount otherwise payable has been withheld as a credit against the contract debt; or

(C) The date on which an amount withheld and applied to the contract debt would otherwise have become payable to the Contractor.

(vii) The interest charge made under this clause may be reduced under the procedures prescribed in FAR 32.608-2 in effect on the date of this contract.

(j) Risk of loss. Unless the contract specifically provides otherwise, risk of loss or damage to the supplies provided under this contract shall remain with the Contractor until, and shall pass to the Government upon:
