The VA Medical Center in Providence, RI has a requirement for proprietary neural signal processing equipment. This equipment is for a highly complex, long-term research endeavor that has been on-going for at least 5 years. Blackrock Microsystems, LLC has been supplying the items required and due to the proprietary nature of these items, a valid sole-source justification exists. VA will negotiate and award a 5-year Blanket Ordering Agreement to this vendor.
