NON-EXPENDABLE EQUIPMENT:

FujiFilm® Arietta 850 or equal Scanning System Ultrasonic Endoscopic

Prepared By:

Strategic Acquisition Center Department of Veterans Affairs 10300 Spotsylvania Avenue, Suite 400 Fredericksburg, VA 22408

1. SCOPE OF WORK:

The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Non-Expendable Equipment National Program has identified the Scanning System Ultrasonic Endoscopic product line as a candidate for a VA-wide (otherwise referred to as “national”) single Requirements contract award.

A Scanning Systems Ultrasonic Endoscopic machine is a device that combines a camera and ultrasound to create images of the digestive tract and surrounding organs. It's used to diagnose and treat diseases in the digestive tract. A thin, flexible tube called an endoscope is inserted into the body through the mouth or anus. The endoscope has a small ultrasound device and a tiny video camera and light at the tip. The ultrasound device sends high-frequency sound waves into the body and those waves reflect off organs and tissues, creating images on a monitor. It's used for Diagnosing and staging cancer, confirming if cancer has spread to other organs or lymph nodes, performing biopsies to test for cancer, draining cysts, and delivering medication directly to an organ.

The Contractor must demonstrate the ability to meet all requirements for the solicitation. The objective is to provide Scanning System Ultrasonic Endoscopic to be used by clinicians throughout the VA medical centers and facilities. The period of performance is for a base of 12-months with four 12-month option periods.
