Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system with 4 (1-year Post-Warranty Maintenance Option periods)

This Sources Sought Notification is seeking capability statements from small businesses for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system with four one-year post-warranty maintenance option periods. The Food and Drug Administration's National Center for Toxicological Research requires the MRI to advance critical research and regulatory science investigating organ toxicity in vivo. The MRI system must have a field strength of at least 9 Tesla, a 100mm accessible bore, specified gradient strength and pulse sequences. Interested vendors must submit capability statements by January 31, 2024 including company information, past performance, technical specifications of offered equipment, pricing, and place of manufacture.

There is no set-aside designated for this requirement. The NAICS code for medical equipment and supplies manufacturing is 334510. The PSC code for MRI systems is J070. As this is a Sources Sought, no incumbent or budget range is specified. However, responses will be evaluated based on the vendor's ability to meet the detailed technical requirements for both the MRI system and the four post-warranty maintenance option periods. Installation, training, and an initial one-year warranty are also required to be provided.
