Opportunity Summary

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Technology Acquisition Center (TAC) is seeking a passive radiofrequency identification (RFID) solution to complement existing inventory management systems within Veteran Integrated Service Network 21 (VISN 21). This requirement, issued under solicitation number 36C10B22R0016, aims to provide an automated solution for locating non-expendable equipment that does not require the real-time tracking capabilities of the current CenTrak active RFID hardware and Infor Location-Based Intelligence user interface. The passive RFID system is intended to address trade-offs related to battery management, maintenance costs, and tag size for equipment where room-level or zonal accuracy is sufficient.

This procurement is a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSBC) set-aside. It is classified under NAICS 541614 Process, Physical Distribution, and Logistics Consulting Services and PSC M1DA OPERATION OF HOSPITALS AND INFIRMARIES. The agency intends to award a firm-fixed price Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for the required commercial products and services. Performance will occur at VA medical centers located across the United States.

The deadline for responses is September 9, 2022, at 3:00 PM EST, with an anticipated award date on or about September 23, 2022. Documentation for this notice includes six attachments consisting of the combined synopsis/solicitation, price schedules, and a questions and answers log. Laura Startek is the designated point of contact for this action.

Original Description

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Procurement, Acquisition, and Logistics, Technology Acquisition Center (TAC), located at 23 Christopher Way, Eatontown, New Jersey, intends to issue RFQ 36C10B22R0016 under NAICS code 541614 as an SDVOSB set-aside. Veteran Integrated Service Network 21 (VISN 21) currently uses CenTrak proprietary active radiofrequency identification (active RFID) hardware and software to provide real time information of asset location, staff location, patient location, as well as environmental variables. CenTrak Active Asset Tracking (AT) deployed at VA Medical Centers is supplemented with the Infor Location-Based Intelligence (LBI) user interface (UI): a platform that maps location data to provide end users with 1) a real-time graphical user interface (GUI) displaying location status for individual assets and 2) a set business intelligence reports and dashboards. These hardware and software are designed for locating assets in real time at a zonal, room-level, and within-room level accuracy. Currently, however, active (i.e., battery powered) CenTrak asset tracking (AT) only provides coverage for a portion of VISN 21s assets due to the trade-off between tag size, maintenance cost (e.g., battery management), and the ability to locate assets in real time. However, it is not necessary to locate in real time the majority of non-expendable (NX) equipment at medical centers. Therefore, VISN 21 is seeking a passive (i.e., non-powered) RFID solution to complement CenTrak active AT in locating non-expendable equipment not suitable for use with active RFID tags. This combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial products and/or commercial services is prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 12.6. The combined synopsis/solicitation is issued as a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside. The intended award will be a firm-fixed price IDIQ type contract. In accordance with FAR 5.207(c)(16)(ii), all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The North American Industrial Classification (NAICS) for this effort is 541614. The anticipated award date of on or about September 23, 2022. This notification shall close on September 9, 2022 at 3:00 PM EST. The deadline for questions and answers is close of business August 26, 2022. Questions/responses shall be submitted via e-mail to Contract Specialist, Laura Startek, e-mail: [email protected], with the subject line as the synopsis number, 36C10B22R0016. The Points of Contact (POCs) for this action are Laura Startek, Contract Specialist, [email protected], 848-377-5089, and Matthew Truex, Contracting Officer, [email protected], 848-377-5045.
