Bio-Medical Equipment Maintenance for USNS Comfort

Pre-Solicitation Notice

Notice of Intent to Sole Source

USNS Comfort T-AH 20 requires calibration services for its 90 Biomedical Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE) to maintain operational readiness and ensure patient safety. Without these services, the equipment will not be certified, resulting in a break in service and a failure to meet healthcare standards. Furthermore, medical equipment that does not have a concurrent service history is deemed unsafe, not recommended for patient use and will affect mission readiness plus operational capabilities.

Need:

USNS COMFORT T-AH 20 is responsible for Naval worldwide medical response during combat operation and or humanitarian relief for allied Nations. The vessel is equipped with over 2,600 pieces of medical equipment to constantly provide high level medical care at its 1,000-patient capacity. This medical equipment is required to have semiannual or annual calibration and examination using unit and manufacture specific Biomedical Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment’s (TMDE). This TMDE is required to ensure patient safety, maintain mission readiness, and uphold operational standards.  The equipment is regularly serviced, and periodic recertification is required to ensure that every tool remains accurate and fully functional for its users. Southeastern Biomedical Associates (incumbent) had provided all the required services for this requirement to include calibration services, shipping, and travel. Our Market research revealed that Southeastern Biomedical Associates is the only company capable of meeting the requirement.

Without periodic recertification, there is a significant risk of equipment failure, false data, or rapid wear-and-tear that could compromise medical operations. Keeping these tools properly maintained avoids treatment errors, ensure units are always ready for deployment, and extend the lifespan of the equipment to reduce long-term costs.

The Contractor shall provide for all-inclusive labor, supervision, parts, diagnostic equipment, inspections, and shipping, necessary for calibration and any required corrective maintenance for all equipment identified above and in attachment 1(Equipment List) – USNS COMFORT Biomedical Test Equipment List to perform all maintenance actions mandated by the original manufacturer specifications. The Contactor shall maintain the Biomedical Test Equipment within the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications, in like new or better condition.

NOTE: Under no circumstances shall the Contractor assume a verbal or written inquiry as authorization to provide services not specifically identified in this PWS.

The USNS Comfort is a ready-5 status ship, so it is critical to have Bio Med equipment up and run according to manufacturer’s OEM.
