The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office (NCO) 22, located at 4811 Airport Plaza Drive, Long Beach, CA 90815 is issuing this Notice of Intent (NOI) to inform industry contractors of the Government s intent to execute a Sole Source Award under FAR Part 6.302-1 only one responsible source for a base plus 2 years, firm-fixed-price contract, to Loma Linda University Pathology Medical Group located at 11234 Anderson St. Room 2151 Loma Linda, CA 92354 . The nephrologists at Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) Loma Linda (LL) have requested to have a local nephropathologist interpret kidney biopsies to ensure rapid turnaround time as an increasing number of cases have been deemed unsatisfactory by the Joint Pathology Center (JPC). JPC requires an increased number of glomeruli present for adequacy evaluation compared to Loma Linda University Pathology Medical Group and has required rebiopsy of multiple patients which resulted in a delay in treatment. Some of the rebiopsies were also deemed inadequate in additional rebiopsies. Rapid turnaround time allows VAMC LL nephrologists to treat patients who are critically ill in a timelier fashion. Utilizing a reference laboratory with a reduced glomeruli adequacy requirement reduces the need for rebiopsy while maintaining a high level of quality due to multiple kidney pathology specialists performing evaluations. VAMC LL performs approximately 30 autopsies per year and when the clinical history indicates that the patient may have brain pathology, VAMC LL also requires a brain histology examination. VAMC LL currently has no staff neuropathologists, and need interpretation by a neuropathologist for brain examinations will be incorporated into the autopsy reports. The specimen can be transported same day for processing without incurring excessive transportation fees for shipping whole organs in formalin. It is imperative brains are shipped intact for proper grossing to be of diagnostic value which will delay cause of death determinations if excessive time for shipping, processing, and evaluation are seen. Neuropathologists are extremely specialized subsets and who can perform the grossing on site to eliminate the need for immediate sample transport. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, supplies, tools, equipment, pick up and delivery to perform the professional component of brain examination and kidney biopsy testing. Turn around time will be 24 hours. Services performed shall conform to industry standards. Kidney biopsy interpretation will include the immunofluorescence and interpretation of the H&E slides evaluated, in order to arrive at a working clinical diagnosis. Brain examination will include dissecting the brain and interpreting the H&E and any other stains needed to evaluate the brain.
