[email protected] 2. Contract Title. Seat Mapping System 3. Background. The New Mexico Veterans Administration Health Care System (NMVAHCS), Albuquerque, NM has a requirement for a Tekscan seat mapping system that will offer a tremendous range of opportunity for pressure mapping a diverse range of needs, and allows for in-the-moment biofeedback training for the SCI population. It can also be used for Veterans with ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases, as appropriate. Using the research software, we will be able to track and trend pressure mapping across time, monitoring the patient's responses to changes in equipment (cushions, mattresses, etc.), demonstrating improvement in grip strength and functional strength for veterans new to SCI Rehab. PVA annual site visit cited VA SCI/D for lack of seat mapping capability. Item # Description Quantity 1 One (1) CONFORMat® 2 VersaTek Wireless/Datalogger System 1 2 One (1) Research Software add-on 1 3 Grip VersaTek 1 4. Scope. This pressure mapping system is being used by VHA for consistency in pressure mapping wounds across VA. The previous systems do not allow for the variability and flexibility that the Tekscan system does. Add-ons can be purchased at reduced cost in the future, as appropriate, for mattress mapping, gait assessment, etc. The system does not rely on a proprietary computer issued by the company which the other pressure mapping systems require as a direct purchase through the company. It does require a system to which the information can be downloaded, which we are requesting above in laptop form, along with special IT dispensation for interfacing the thumb drive to CPRS. Tekscan does not have proprietary Tekscan-VA software but, again, can be easily converted to Word and Excel for ease of download into CPRS. In this manner, all the patient information will be secure once downloaded from the drive, and deleted off the thumb drive.\ 5. Specific Tasks. N/A 6. Performance Monitoring. Biomedical engineering staff and Spinal Cord Injury/Disorder Care Line therapy staff will judge the accuracy and quality of the system procured within the one-year limited warranty that the company provides with the product. 7. Security Requirements. N/A 8. Government-Furnished Equipment (GFE)/Government-Furnished Information (GFI). N/A 9. Other Pertinent Information or Special Considerations. N/A a. Identification of Possible Follow-on Work. N/A b. Identification of Potential Conflicts of Interest (COI). N/A c. Identification of Non-Disclosure Requirements. N/A d. Packaging, Packing and Shipping Instructions. N/A e. Inspection and Acceptance Criteria. N/A 10. Risk Control. N/A 11. Place of Performance. NMVAHCS, SCI Therapy Department, 1501 San Pedro Dr. SE, Albuquerque, NM 87108. 12. Period of Performance. N/A 13. Delivery Schedule. Items should be delivered in one instance to the NMVAHCS Logistics Warehouse, Building 46, for equipment check-in. Ultimate destination will be Bldg 45, SCI Therapy Department, 1501 San Pedro Dr. SE, Albuquerque, NM 87108. SECTION C - CONTRACT CLAUSES C.1 VAAR 852.203-70 COMMERCIAL ADVERTISING (JAN 2008) The bidder or offeror agrees that if a contract is awarded to him/her, as a result of this solicitation, he/she will not advertise the award of the contract in his/her commercial advertising in such a manner as to state or imply that the Department of Veterans Affairs endorses a product, project or commercial line of endeavor.
