The Naval Medical Logistics Command (NMLC) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis (in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b) (1) (i) - soliciting from a single source). The proposed source is Satisloh North America, Inc., N106 W13131 Bradley Way, Suite 200, Germantown, WI 53022. The requirement is for a replacement component of three (3) replacement polish carts/intelligent flow slurry systems (carts) for Multiflex Robotic Soft Polishers, manufactured by Satisloh North America, Inc., located at the Naval Ophthalmic Support and Training Activity (NOSTRA). This acquisition is for three (3) polish carts/intelligent flow slurry systems (Part# 02-071-381) for NOSTRA; this requirement is for replacement components only. The carts shall be compatible with the Multiflex Robotic Soft Polishers (ECN #8606, 8607, and 8608) manufactured by Satisloh North America, Inc. The part shall be new; a used or refurbished part will not be accepted. NOSTRA has three Robotic Soft Polishers that require a cart, each to operate in the Surfacing section of the lab and all three carts are failing and not providing adequate polish flow. The Soft Polishers are operating at degraded levels and required production levels are impacted. Carts need to be replaced so that production and mission can be accomplished. The output levels on all there machines are not at the optimal level and production capability is significantly reduced. This is limiting NOSTRA's ability to maintain readiness jobs for military personnel. The procurement of these vital parts is necessary to bring the Robotic Soft Polishers back to required output levels. Required production levels cannot be maintained with the current carts. It is negatively affecting NOSTRA's ability to provide the necessary eyewear and Combat Eye Protection that military forces are required to have, per current mandated government regulations. This notice of intent is not a request for quotes and no solicitation document exists for the requirement; however, if a vendor challenges the basis for this requirement, please submit a capability statement that includes sufficient detail and with convincing evidence that clearly demonstrates the capability to submit a product meeting the minimum requirements specified above. Capability statements shall not exceed 5 (8.5 x 11 inch) pages using a font size no smaller than 10-point. All capability statements received by the due date of this notice will be considered by the Government. A request for documentation or additional information or submissions that only ask questions will not be considered as an affirmative response. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed with a sole source procurement. If a vendor challenges the basis of this requirement, please email capability statements (formats for submission: PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel) to Katie Brown at Kathryn.s.brown12.civ@mail.mil. Closing date for challenges is no later than 1400 Eastern time on 23 September 2021. No phone calls will be accepted.
