Maintenance Services for Getinge Sterilizers and Ultrasonic Washers

Notice of Intent to Sole Source

The Naval Medical Logistics Command (NMLC) intends to negotiate a sole source contract under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 1901 with Getinge USA, Inc. (Getinge), 1777 East Henrietta Road, Rochester, NY, 14623-3133, for the provision of sterilizer and ultrasonic washer maintenance services at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, VA (NMCP). The contractor shall provide all all parts, labor, materials, travel, personnel, supervision, and freight for the scheduled (preventive) and unscheduled (corrective) maintenance for all identified equipment. The period of performance is 01 October 2017 through 30 September 2022.

Getinge will provide maintenance via on-site engineering support, for select Getinge sterilizers installed and used at NMCP. Getinge is capable of providing new, non-refurbished OEM parts required for repairs. Due to the age of the sterilization systems at NMCP, parts are very scarce and hard to order quickly even from the OEM. An OEM service contract will guarantee quick turn-around time for parts delivery. Additionally, Getinge technicians are OEM certified and Getinge is ISO 9001 certified. Accordingly, Getinge is the only qualified source for this procurement that can provide the on-site support and OEM parts for Government-owned Getinge sterilization systems, in accordance with the required performance work statement, immediately upon award.
