Attachment A.xlsx

This is a pricing template and company information form (Attachment A) submitted in response to a Sources Sought Notice/Request for Information for ultracentrifuge equipment and installation services. The template requests bidders to provide pricing for four line items: a Beckman Coulter Optima XE-90 Ultracentrifuge (Part Number A94471), installation service without training (Part Number C74252), a Type 70Ti fixed-angle rotor rated for 8 x 39 mL capacity at 70,000 rpm (Part Number 337922), and a SW41Ti swinging bucket rotor rated for 6 x 13.2 mL capacity at 41,000 rpm (Part Number 331362). The form requires vendors to propose equivalent brand alternatives with corresponding nomenclature, part numbers, and descriptions demonstrating equal capability, along with unit pricing and extended costs for each line item.

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is seeking qualified sources capable of providing this ultracentrifuge equipment package for the New Mexico VA Medical Center under a "brand name or equal" procurement approach. Responders must complete the pricing template and provide company information including name, address, telephone number, email, point of contact, and UEI number. Detailed salient characteristics defining the equipment requirements are referenced in Attachment B. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes to identify potential qualified sources and is not a binding solicitation; however, responses containing pricing and capability information are encouraged for government planning purposes.
