The procurement is for the San Francisco VA Healthcare System, which requires two Eyecon Model 9430 visual prescription pill counters and accessories. These machines are specifically needed to integrate with existing ScriptPro and Vista pharmacy management systems during the installation of a ScriptPro SP 200 Robotic Medication Dispensing System. The notice indicates this will be a firm fixed price contract under NAICS code 339112 for surgical and medical equipment manufacturing. The acquisition falls under the VA's Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 21.
