Page 1 of 1

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Providence VA Medical Center intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, pursuant to FAR 6.302-1, with Bionik Laboratories for the IMotion Arm Hand interactive Therapy System. This is the only system acceptable for our research as it can be used for rehabilitation purposes and is compatible with the existing arm that we have here at PVAMC. This is the only upper extremity robotic system that captures the required kinematics (2D planar) in stroke patients while also allowing us to directly interface with its motors for neural control of the device.This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any responsible source who believes it is capable of meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement to the contracting office no later than Tuesday, May 8th, 4:00, EST. Interest/capability statements may be sent to Lynn Portman at lynn.portman@va.gov. No telephone responses will be accepted. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
