Palm Fume Hood Questions

1. Can you please explain what type of hood this is? Is it a “walk in fume hood” or an ISO 5 area?

20 Custom Canopy Gross Rm Large Structure N/A TBD 1715A Answer: It is a ‘walk-in fume hood’.

Since the Custom Canopy Gross Room Large Structure was made in-house, there are no identifying features such as Serial Numbers or EE numbers. Barbara March put in a Work Order to create an EE # which facilitates looking up equipment in Vista.

2. Where are these hoods located? RFP requests USP 800, but provides no requirements for USP testing or viable sampling. Are these required?

Answer: San Diego VA Medical Center, Bldg. 1, in the PALMS area. Rooms are 1231, 1232, 1234, 1240, 1242, 1715, 1715-1, 1715A, and 1715A-1. The U.S. Pharmacopeia’s (USP 800) General Chapter, Pharmaceutical Compounding Sterile-Preparations establishes the minimum standards required for a facility to perform high quality compounded sterile preparations (CSPs) and hazardous drug sampling.

3. Bid lists “rooms and equipment” but there is no room information listed in the bid package. Are there rooms to also be tested?

Answer: Rooms are not to be tested. The Fume Hoods are in Bldg. 1 at the respective PALMS rooms.

4. Contractor Qualifications. Bid requests “training and experience” with the standards listed, but does not state that the technicians must be accredited per these standards.

Answer: Can you please confirm? Sorry. I don’t personally know. I think Neil Caluya would be a good source. He is in our group.

5. In relation with the Pricing Schedule, could you please outline what is encompassed in this clin item 0002?

Answer: This is not a priced CLIN, this would only be necessary if an emergency came up at the hospital.
