AGFA TalkStation Dictation System Upgrade

The 766th Specialized Contracting Squadron, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, HI intends to award a Purchase Order to AGFA Healthcare to upgrade the existing TalkStation software from the 4.0 version to the 4.1 version at the HQ PACAF/SGSI. The upgrade will be implemented at the government's largest Medical Treatment Facilities (MTF's) including Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson, Misawa AB, Osan AB and Yokota AB. Due to the large number of active duty and retired military personnel and their beneficiaries in the area, patients regularly travel between these large hospitals seeking care and the radiology PACS systems are required to operate as if they are one. AGFA Talkstation Dictation System 4.1 will provide a turn-key solution that will allow PACAF radiologists to seamlessly share workload around the Pacific command. Simplified Acquisition Procedures using FAR Part 13, Acquisition for Commercial Items will be used for this requirement. This is neither a request for quote or announcement of forthcoming solicitation. Interested sources that believe they can perform the services required may submit a capability statement to Ms. Taylor Boomershine by 1:00PM, Hawaii Standard Time on 21 Sep 2016. The government will consider all responses but a determination by the Government not to compete this action is solely under the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive acquisition. If no viable responses are received by the due date, the Government will issue a Purchase Order to AGFA Healthcare.
