Summary (Newest Update)

Background This solicitation is issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for the acquisition of Hemosphere monitors required at the Houston VA Medical Center. The goal is to replace the existing End-of-Life Hemosphere systems with newer models that provide advanced physiological monitoring capabilities. This acquisition is specifically set aside for Veteran Owned small business concerns. Work Details The contract involves the procurement of the following items: 1. **ALTAALL1B**: Hemosphere Alta All-in-One Advanced Monitoring System - 41 units - Features include integration of PA Catheter hemodynamic trending, Non-Invasive Continuous BP monitoring, Tissue/Cerebral Oximetry monitoring, and invasive arterial hemodynamic monitoring capabilities. 2. **HEMA70CC2**: Swan-Ganz module - 41 units 3. **HEMOXSC100**: Tissue oximetry cable - 41 units 4. **EVHRS**: Heart Reference Sensor (controller) - 41 units 5. **HEMFSM10**: Cerebral Oximetry Controller - 41 units 6. **HEMAPSC200**: ClearSight Module - 41 units 7. **HEMPSC100**: Acumen IQ Pressure cable - 41 units 8. **HEMDPT1000**: Pressure output cable - 41 units 9. **HEMQG1000**: Quick start guide - 41 units 10. **70CC2**: Continuous Cardiac Output cable - 41 units 11. **PCCVR**: Pressure Controller Cover - 41 units 12. **HEMOXCR1000**: Hemosphere Oximetry Smart accessories - 41 units 13. **HEMRLSTD1000**: Hemosphere Roll Stand accessories - 10 units. Vendors quoting equal products must ensure compatibility with existing systems and provide a complete working Hemosphere system. Period of Performance Delivery is required within 90 days after receipt of order (ARO). Place of Performance Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, 2002 Holcombe Boulevard, Houston, TX 77030, USA. Bidder Requirements Bidders must be authorized vendors of the products offered and ensure that all quoted items are compatible with existing hemodynamic monitoring disposable supplies including Edwards Swan Gantz Catheters and Acumen IQ systems. Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent based on prior VA contract 36C25622P1517 awarded to Edwards Lifesciences for Hemosphere monitoring systems (approximately $417,900, 09/30/22–09/29/24). The current requirement for Hemosphere ALTA all-in-one advanced monitoring systems and associated modules/cables for the Houston VAMC looks like a continuation of that same Hemosphere monitor supply effort, including replacement of end-of-life systems with newer models. A closely related prior award also exists for Hemosphere ALTA hemodynamic monitors (36C26026P0344 to 1st American Medical Distributors), suggesting ongoing procurement of similar Hemosphere Alta hardware and accessories.
