Official description

Revised Language SCOPE OF SOLICITATION The Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) program is also known as the GSA Schedules Program or the Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Program. The FSS program is directed and managed by GSA and provides Federal agencies with a simplified process for obtaining commercial supplies and services at prices associated with volume buying. Indefinite-delivery, indefinite quantity contracts are awarded to provide supplies and services at stated prices for given periods of time. GSA has delegated authority to the VA to manage the Schedules for medical supplies under the VA FSS program. This solicitation is for the offering of reference laboratory services for the purpose of providing medical laboratory testing for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition and to assess patient health to make clinical decisions for patient care. This solicitation is not for facilities that only collect and/or prepare specimens nor for those facilities that only serve as a mailing service and do not perform testing services. This solicitation is issued to establish contracts which may be used on a nonmandatory basis by eligible users, as a source of supply for the supplies or services described herein, for domestic. Domestic delivery is defined as delivery within the 48 contiguous states, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Washington, DC, and U.S. territories . Offerors may be limited to geographic service areas based upon licensing requirements or may offer nationwide delivery. This solicitation further requires that offered prices cover delivery to destinations (i.e. F.O.B. destination) located within the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia. Offerors can choose whether or not prices cover delivery f.o.b. destination to Alaska, Hawaii, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Additionally, the solicitation defines the number of calendar days after receipt of order (ARO) within which delivery must be made. Offerors who cannot provide the required minimum geographic coverage, that is one state, will not be considered for award. As specified in the solicitation, offerors shall comply with all state, federal and local regulations, licenses, permits, and accreditation necessary to manage and conduct preanalytic specimen testing services. Offerors must comply with states that require out of state licenses/permits. Therefore, laboratories conducting clinical testing on specimens originating in a state that requires an out of state license/permit must hold that state s Department of Health (or other governing body) clinical laboratory permit, licenses, etc.  Offerors that are not compliant with the originating state s licensing and/or permit requirement, regardless of location, will not be considered for an award for that specific state. Offerors may not subcontract to another laboratory to circumvent the originating state s requirement for licensing, permits, etc. The offeror, in itself, is required to meet the requirements
