Portable Blood Analyzer

This solicitation sought a portable blood analyzer for a government entity, using a Request for Quotation (RFQ) process. Seven vendors submitted pricing, with quoted amounts ranging from roughly $14 k to $21 k and delivery times from one week to four weeks. The contract was ultimately awarded to McKesson Medical Surgical Government Solutions, a federal‑government contractor, suggesting they met the agency’s criteria for price, delivery schedule, or other undisclosed evaluation factors. The award reflects a modest‑size, fixed‑price purchase of a medical device, likely intended for a single unit or a small batch, with no explicit contract term or renewal language provided. • Scope: Procurement of a portable blood analyzer (no technical specifications detailed). • Competition: Open RFQ with multiple respondents; award to a single vendor. • Financials: Winning price inferred to be near the lowest quoted amount (~$14 k). • Delivery: Vendor pledged 2–4 weeks delivery, meeting the agency’s timeframe requirements.
