STATEMENT OF NEED (SON) Altoona VA Medical Center Title of the project: GE Healthcare - Carescape B450 Bedside Monitor Background: The Altoona VA Medical Center has a new requirement for one (1) Brand Name Only GE Healthcare - Carescape B450 Bedside Monitor to replace one end of life cycle GE bedside monitor. The Altoona VAMC currently uses the Carescape Bedside Monitoring System, and this additional B450 Monitor will allow seamless integration and interchangeability with the current 23 Carescape B450 Bedside Monitors and 2 Carescape Central Monitoring Stations currently in use. This acquisition will replace one obsolete GE Transport Pro Cardiac Bedside Monitor in the Urgent Care Center. This is proprietary equipment that will not work with components from another manufacturer. Choosing a different manufacturer would not be in the best interest of the government as it would require replacing the other 23 Bedside Monitors, staff training, and other miscellaneous components to be added to this requirement in order to allow it to be placed into use. Tasks and deliverables: Turnkey installation of bedside monitoring unit configured as follows: Part# Description Qty Unit 5805686 CARESCAPE B450 MBA323 (ATO MODEL) 1.00 EA 5805670 B450 MBA323 FRAME WITHOUT WLAN 1.00 EA 2062895-001 Battery FLEX-3S2P 10.8v 18650 LI-ION SMBUS (B450 1.00 EA 5821557 Compatible) CARESCAPE B450 CSP V3.2 SOFTWARE 1.00 EA 2066520-001 B450 Recorder Option 1.00 EA 5822486-16 B450 V3.2 ENGLISH US LOCALIZATION 1.00 EA 2068494-005 B450 English US Keyboard Software Setting 1.00 EA 2068494-017 B450 Power Frequency Setting 60HZ 1.00 EA 2064277-001 B450 4 ICU - CRITICAL CARE SOFTWARE PACKAGE 1.00 EA 5864700-04 B450 STANDARD CRITICAL CARE BUNDLE 1.00 EA 2066381-001 Power Cord, USA/Canada 8FT Angle, GE PN 405535-007 1.00 EA 5514143 Carescape B450 BRH MBT001 1.00 EA 2105824-018 PDM Support 1.00 EA 2095708-001 Transport Only B450 Monitor 1.00 EA 2083083-001 Installation 1.00 EA 2042084-001 Patient Data Module (PDM) 1.00 EA 2041390-002 Nellcor SP02 1.00 EA 2041390-020 ENGLISH 1.00 EA 2041575-002 60HZ 1.00 EA 2041575-003 Software Option Enable Invasive BP 1.00 EA 2041390-041 Battery 1.00 EA 2041390-044 No Bedside Dock 1.00 EA 2021406-001 2106305-001 CBL SPO2 NELLCOR OXIMAX3M CABLE ASSY SPO2 NELLCOR OXIMAX 3.6M ECG TRUNK CABLE, 3/5-LEAD, AHA, 3.6m/12ft 1.00 EA EA NIBP_USA_BUNDLE Nested Bundle for NIBP Cuffs for Monitoring Products USA 1.00 EA 2058203-002 2083083-001 DINACLICK Air Hose, 12ft (3.6m) Care Hose w/Retangle Connector to Adult 2T DINACLICK Connector Installation Charge 1.00 EA EA 2083083-001 Installation 1.00 EA CE2022004 MS Onsite Training 1 :Day: MS Onsite Clinical Training 1 Day provides 1 day of onsite clinical education training or product configuration, designed to provide flexible training options that promote learner retention and support staff skill development. 1.00 EA Delivery and installation: All items must be FOB Destination, 30 Days ARO, to the following location: Altoona VA Medical Center Attn: (VA Purchase Order #) 2907 Pleasant Valley Blvd. Altoona, PA 16602 Monday Friday from 7:00am 3:00pm (excluding federal holidays) CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITIES: The contractor shall be responsible for the following: Assign a Project Manager upon award of contract.
