The procurement involves the acquisition of approximately 100 Hi-Lo Mat Tables and 90 Treatment Tables to be delivered in two phases: 50 Hi-Lo Mat Tables and 40 Treatment Tables to the hybrid program at 22 West Edge by May 2025, followed by 50 Hi-Lo Mat Tables and 50 Treatment Tables to Building D at 74 Presidents St by December 2025.

Treatment Tables must have electronic foot pedal height adjustment from 18"-36", casters, a stainless steel frame supporting 500 pounds, dimensions of approximately 3'x5', and similar upholstery specifications. Cardon Medical is listed as the benchmark for quality, though equivalent products meeting the specifications will be considered. The solicitation requires offers to be submitted by January 8, 2025, at 11:00 AM ET, with a non-mandatory virtual pre-bid conference held on December 11, 2024, at 11:00 AM ET. Questions were due by December 11, 2024, at 5:00 PM ET, and the award will be posted on January 13, 2025.

The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder by complete lot, with a one-year term and four optional one-year renewals, creating a potential maximum contract period of five years. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, vendors must submit offers electronically via www.procurement.sc.gov. The solicitation allows for price increases after the initial contract term and requires vendors to submit product brochures, with MUSC potentially requesting live video presentations of the equipment. Shipping terms are FOB Destination-Freight Prepaid and Added, and the specific Cardon model numbers sought are R27627 for Treatment Tables and R16415 for Hi-Lo Tables. MUSC reserves the right to adjust quantities based on space limitations and requires contractors to hold tables if facility completion is delayed. While no precise budget range is specified, the procurement involves approximately 190 tables across two delivery phases, suggesting a significant investment in medical equipment for the College of Health Professions. Vendors must demonstrate the ability to provide high-quality, specialized medical treatment tables that meet the stringent specifications outlined in the solicitation.
