6515--Audiometers in support of the VISN 23 VAHCS
This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source delivery order for audiometers and their maintenance to Natus Medical in support of a VA network in Eagan, MN. The justification is that Natus Medical is the proprietary developer and sole service provider for the specific audiometer systems in use, and no other company can provide maintenance without violating proprietary rights and voiding warranties. While not a solicitation, interested vendors may submit a capability statement and documentation to the contracting officer via email for consideration. Any such response would need to demonstrate the ability to provide the service as an authorized entity, per the rights holder. The government will review responses to decide whether to proceed competitively.
