STATEMENT OF REQUIREMENTS
NMCSD has a requirement for therapeutic construction and reconstruction breast implants, sizer(s) and tissue expanders. The contractor shall provide Gel breast implants/sizers that are filled with a cohesive gel that holds together uniformly and retains a natural shape and texture that will resemble breast tissue. Gel implants/sizers must have a set-fill volume for predictable results. The breast implants are pre-filled to an appropriate volume that is required by the surgeon. Offerors shall provide a full complement of volume amounts ranging from 100cc to 800cc.
Gel shall not be added or removed from the implant. Tissue expanders, used in breast reconstruction shall be designed to allow for differential expansion of the breast pocket (greater expansion in the lower portion of the breast). The expander should have an integral “injection port” that allows for simplified and more convenient expansion. Offerors shall provide at a minimum a 30mm port. However, a larger port entry point is optimal due to the potential patient risk should a expander puncture occur.
The requirement includes the styles described within the pricing spreadsheet (See attachment I). Offerors shall present their product listing for verification of the models and styles along with their proposals.
https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/ mailto:brian.d.miller1.civ@mail.mil mailto:brian.d.miller1.civ@mail.mil

The Contractor shall make no adjustments, changes, deletions or additions to the base stock/inventory or to the list of products to be provided without a written contract modification from the Contracting Officer. Request for modification must be submitted in writing to the
Contract Specialist as specified in the Instructions to Offerors.

Vendor shall be the original supply manufacturer, authorized dealer, authorized distributor or authorized reseller for the proposed supplies. Warranty and service are provided and maintained by the original supply manufacturer.
BASIS OF AWARD
This is a best value tradeoff procurement. The Government may elect to award to other than the lowest priced, based on the evaluation of the non-priced factors and the best value to the Government. Technical is more important than
Past Performance; Technical and Past Performance, when combined, are more important than price. The Small
Business Representative will review the subcontracting plan for acceptability. Since awards will be made on a best value basis, the Contracting Officer reserves the right to award to other than the lowest priced offeror providing the prices are determined to be reasonable.
Proposals shall include sufficiently detailed information to enable evaluation based on the following factors:
The Government will evaluate each offer to determine the ability to meet the requirements of the solicitation as described in the Statement of Requirements.
The Government will not assume that the offeror possesses any capability or knowledge unless it is specified in the Technical section.
Past Performance
The Government will first evaluate the offeror’s Past Performance references to determine whether the company has provided relevant Past Performance. A determination of relevant or not relevant will be made for each reference. A relevancy determination may be made based solely on the information provided on the past performance.
Past performance information may be obtained from any other sources available to the Government, such as Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) and interviews with Contracting Officer’s
Representatives/Technical Liaisons.
The Government reserves the right to utilize other information not provided by the vendor and will evaluate information readily available. It is the responsibility of the offeror to ensure names and phone numbers of points of contact are verified and accurate. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (FAR 15.305(a)(2)(iv)). The offeror will receive a neutral rating.
The Small Business Representative will review the subcontracting plan for acceptability. If an offeror fails to negotiate a subcontracting plan acceptable to the Contracting Officer within the time limit prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the offeror will be ineligible for award.
Adequate price competition is expected for this acquisition. The offeror will be evaluated for reasonableness and completeness.
Reasonableness: The offeror’s price will be evaluated separately to determine the degree to which the total proposed prices represents a fair and reasonable price. The offeror’s total price will be used to evaluate price reasonableness.
Completeness: The offeror's price will be examined to ensure that all items required in the Instructions to
Offeror’s have been submitted and are complete.

Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,500 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.
(i) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:
(A) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.
(B) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.
(ii) Examples.
(A) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. Sec. 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

Sec. 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.
(C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. Sec. 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.
(D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).
