A solicitation document will not be issued and quotations will not be requested. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a fixed price contract to Medline Industries, LP. 3 Lakes DR Northfield, Illinois 60093-2753 on a sole source basis for the procurement of the Refurbished Medfusion 3500 Syringe Pumps needed by the Critical Care Medicine Department (CCMD) at the NIH Clinical Center (CC). The CCMD conducts active research programs in bedside clinical investigations, research in animal models, and molecular biology. The purpose of this requirement is to acquire the Refurbished Medfusion 3500 Syringe pumps. The infusion pumps are used for preclinical studies evaluating the mechanisms and treatment of human critical illnesses. These studies require intravenous infusion of up to seven different fluids and medications at one time, often at exceedingly low volumes. The integrity of the studies is dependent upon reliable dosing. The Medfusion 3500 pumps are the only known pumps that allow for highly accurate continuous infusions with rates as low as 0.01mL/hr, pumps compatible across the range. This procurement is imperative in order to protect integrity and outcome of the research.
