NH Jax integrated new Nerve Conduction /Electromyography (NCS/EMG) equipment

The Naval Hospital Jacksonville (NHJX) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis (IAW FAR Part FAR 8.405-(6)(b)(1) only one source is capable of responding). The proposed source is Cadwell Laboratories, Inc. of 909 Kellogg St, Kennewick, Washington, 99336-7669. The requirement is for an integrated new nerve conduction /electromyography (NCS/EMG) with electroencephalography (EEG) that utilizes a small space. The Neurology clinic requires a new NCS/EMG machine and EEG machine in order to perform the necessary tests as the current equipment is beyond its expected service life and parts can longer be obtained when they break. The space for the equipment is limited which requires the NMUS and EMG to be on the same cart, using the same computer.

This requirement is part of Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) procurement. Only one award will be made as a result of this synopsis. The majority of the items required for the systems are available on Cadwell Laboratory's contract (36F79721D0069). However, the following components are not available via their schedule:
