B.3 STATEMENT OF WORK
B.3.1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
A) INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Commodities and Services Acquisition Service (CSAS) and the Denver Logistics Service (DLS), manage holistic supply chain management for the VA National Audiology, Prosthetics, and Telehealth Programs and supports VA and other Government agencies with professional acquisition and logistical services. The Department of Veterans Health Administration (VHA), Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service (PSAS) and Orthotic, Prosthetic & Pedorthic Clinical Services (OPPCS) has identified the need to procure Orthotic Softgoods and Prosthetic Supplies through CSAS and the DLS in order to meet Veteran Patient Care needs and aligning to the Mission Act to meet the needs of the Veteran.
VHA has made a considerable investment organizationally as well as in medical technologies to support advancing health technology and capabilities. VHA consistently seeks advances in health technologies to:
• Improve the quality of health for the Veteran
• Increase the quality of health care available throughout VHA
• Improve the efficiency of health care providers and staff
• Increase Veterans’ overall satisfaction with VA/VHA
The VHA, PSAS and OPPCS have identified Orthotic Softgoods and Prosthetic Supplies as preferred products for consolidated contracting through the VA CSAS, the DLS. The products purchased under the respective contracts will be used to improve service delivery outcomes for Veterans/patients and reduce wait times. The contract(s) is a firm-fixed-price (FFP), IDIQ contract, which will be used as a primary source of supply by the VA and other authorized Government agencies. Contracted items will be ordered from time to time and in such quantities as needed to fulfill agencies’ requirements in accordance with applicable supply procedures.
B. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
VA’s purpose under this solicitation and resulting contract is to obtain orthotic softgoods and prosthetic supplies while securing a continuous supply of products. These products are purchased by the VA CSAS and DLS for stocking, distribution, and assignment to individual VA medical facilities and subsequent issue to Veteran patients. This provides the contractor with a single point of contact for all ordering activity under the contract.VA DLS’s Remote Order Entry System (ROES) will electronically place purchase delivery orders to the awarded contractor for restocking via designated Ordering Officers (OO). ROES allows for a streamlined ordering process and increases operating efficiency while providing greater transparency among stakeholders. Additional orders may be placed by the Contract Officer (CO) and duly appointed Ordering Officers to replenish depleted stock.
The VA has been providing orthotic softgoods and prosthetic supplies to eligible Veterans for multiple years. The need for orthotic softgoods and prosthetic supplies for Veterans has increased steadily over the years. To meet the increasing demand with the highest level of technology at the lowest prices, VHA PSAS and OPPCS have worked in conjunction with DLS and CSAS to develop contracts for orthotic softgoods and prosthetic supplies that provide the best value.
The objectives are to:
a) Obtain quality products at lower than current open-market prices.
b) Ensure availability and consistency of product for nationwide usage while integrating the
DLS ROES program for ordering. Products will be ordered using the DLS’s ROES and will be shipped directly to the clinic or in some cases the Veteran. This mechanism will be the primary source for contracted products for the VA.
c) Improve operating efficiency throughout the VA.
d) This contract will also allow for higher level of effective communication between the
Government and Contractor which is essential for partnering for this performance-based contract to succeed. The success of this Contract is shared between the Government and the Contractor.
B.3.2 SCOPE
This requirement is not a personal services contract (as described in FAR 37.104(a) and defined in FAR 2.101, Performance Base Contract and the success of this contract depends on not only the performance satisfaction of the requirement but on the satisfaction of the Veteran beneficiary and VHA Clinical Staff on services received. The VA intends to solicit and award a multiple award IDIQ contracts to provide the widest range of technologies for clinicians and
Veterans and to ensure that the demand created by the large volume of orders generated by the VA can be met.
The preferred product features shall be defined by clinical prescription which profiles the intended user and environment as well as physical and performance specifications. The contract will fulfill the supply requirement for the Orthotic Softgoods and Prosthetic Supplies nationwide.
The contractor(s) shall provide an uninterrupted source of supply of various Orthotic Softgoods and Prosthetic Supplies that meet or exceed the specifications and deliver within the terms of the contract(s). Delivery shall take place within 20 business days of the ROES delivery order issuance. The delivery orders placed through ROES shall indicate the specific items ordered, item quantities, and all necessary delivery and payment procedures.
