The goal of the Manufacturer Direct Program is to establish an alternative to manual open market purchase activity, re-engineer the business process with automated e-commerce business solution. The objective of this solicitation is to establish a Fixed Price (with Economic Price Adjustment) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract with DePuy Synthes through JJHCS (Johnson & Johnson Health Care Systems) for their spinal and orthopedic “procedural sets” and auxiliary items. The “procedural sets” include the following product mix: implants, instruments, auxiliary products, biological products including distraction devices, biomaterials, power systems, sternal products, and threadlock device systems. The product mix that makes up the “procedural set” varies based on the individual needs of the patient. Other sole-source DePuy Synthes product groups may be solicited at a future date under the forthcoming solicitation. This solicitation contains an on-site personnel requirement for the contractor to provide advice and guidance to physician's before, during and after implantation of the device at the request of the Medical Treatment Facility. Technical support shall be available twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. Market Research has revealed that there are no other known manufacturers or distributors other than DePuy Synthes who can provide DoD hospitals with the complete “procedural package” under all three delivery methods and have direct control over a sales force that is knowledgeable in DePuy Synthes Spinal products. The DePuy Synthes Sales Representatives are experts on the vendor’s products and are a vital part of helping to ensure that the patient is getting the necessary treatment. DePuy Synthes will have their product line loaded in the DLA Troop Support Medical Electronic Catalog (ECAT) system. All Orders, Order Confirmations, Invoices, and Payment transactions are required to be electronic. Items will be delivered to various Department of Defense (DoD) research centers, hospitals, clinics, and any federal customer participating in this program. The term of the contract will be a one-year Base Period and four one-year ordering Periods. This procurement has an estimated value of $4,693,973.00 for the first ordering period (Base), $4,709,923.00 for the second ordering period, $4,725,927.00 for the third ordering period, $4,741,986.00 for the fourth ordering period, and $4,758,099.00 for the fifth ordering period, for a total of approximately $23,629,908.00 over the five-year life of the procurement.
