6515--Aria Telemetry Transmitters

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 is procuring 30 Spacelabs Healthcare Telemetry Boxes (Model 96281) for the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center in Charleston, SC. The telemetry transmitters must meet specific technical specifications including ECG and SpO2 transmission capabilities, operate on a 1400 MHz T&V band with 50 kHz bandwidth, feature 5-lead AHA/AAMI color code compatibility, and maintain portability requirements of 132mm H x 75mm W x 22mm D while weighing less than 200g with a color LCD display. The hospital currently uses Spacelabs technology and seeks to add these transmitters to support acute nursing care needs. The procurement will be evaluated using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach. Proposals are due July 1, 2025, with delivery required within 30 days of contract award.

This solicitation is set aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), and vendors must be VIP verified before the solicitation closes. Spacelabs Healthcare appears to be the incumbent technology provider, as the facility currently uses their systems and is specifically seeking to add compatible transmitters to their existing infrastructure. The procurement involves exactly 30 units of the specified telemetry transmitter model. Performance will take place at the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center in Charleston, South Carolina. No additional training will be required as the facility staff is already familiar with the Spacelabs technology platform.
