Adv Life Sup Aurora Manikin or Approved Equal

The Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG), on behalf of Coastal Pines Technical College (CPTC), is issuing an electronic Request for Quotes (eRFQ) pursuant to the State Purchasing Act (Official Code of Georgia Annotated 50-5-50 et seq.) for a one-time purchase of an Advanced Life Support Manikin or Approved Equal. The primary objective is to acquire training equipment capable of being ventilated by machine or managed by a system that generates respiratory patient scenarios for hands-on student learning in healthcare programs. The college has identified the Aurora Manikin 60 00 100 P as its preferred equipment but will consider approved equal alternatives that meet the specified functional requirements. The manikin must be capable of supporting advanced life support training scenarios with machine-ventilated and system-managed respiratory capabilities. The bid event was extended to May 30, 2025, at 2:00 PM due to a system problem, establishing this date as the final submission deadline. Interested vendors should access bid documents and specifications through the Team Georgia Marketplace Bid Event portal, with technical assistance available through the DOAS Customer Service Help Desk at 404-657-6000 or ProcurementHelp@doas.ga.gov during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, excluding state holidays and closures.

The procurement documents do not specify set-aside designations, restrictions on respondent types, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, incumbent vendor information, or budget ranges in the provided materials. Vendors interested in responding to this opportunity should consult the complete Bid Specification document available in the attachments section of the Team Georgia Marketplace Bid Event for comprehensive evaluation criteria, technical requirements, and any additional terms and conditions. The one-time purchase structure indicates this is a direct award to a single authorized supplier rather than a multi-vendor contract. Prospective bidders are advised to thoroughly review all documentation and contact the DOAS Help Desk if clarification is needed regarding submission requirements or technical specifications before the May 30, 2025, deadline.
