6525--IsoPoint System and Software Intent to Sole Source

Intent to Sole Source
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Veterans Health Administration (VHA), Network Contracting Office (NCO) 12 in Milwaukee, WI, intends to award a firm fixed price purchase on a sole source basis to:
AKTINA CORP.
360 N ROUTE 9W
CONGERS, NY 10920-1420

This action is for the acquisition of the isoPoint Isocenter Characterization System. This procurement supports the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) Program, located at 5000 W. National Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53295.
This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. No solicitation document is available, and no request for quotes will be issued.
The Government requires the isoPoint Isocenter Characterization System, a proprietary optical tracking and 3D mechanical isocenter analysis solution used for precision quality assurance of stereotactic radiosurgery operations.
The system consists of:
Stereo camera pod
Tracking modules
Precision mechanical markers
Software capable of 3D characterization, mechanical axis assessment, collimator and couch analysis, and beam to target error computation
The isoPoint system will enhance the accuracy and efficiency of quality assurance for the facility s Elekta Versa HD LINAC, providing real time 3D mechanical data not achievable through existing Winston Lutz methodologies. The system s capability to achieve sub 0.01 mm mechanical precision is critical to maintaining clinical standards for the SRS program.
Aktina Medical is the sole manufacturer and exclusive provider of the isoPoint Isocenter Characterization System. The isoPoint is the only known system capable of conducting direct mechanical rotational axis measurements of LINAC subsystems and generating a full 3D error matrix.
Other QA tools rely on image based estimation and lack the ability to perform subsystem specific mechanical characterization. Only Aktina Medical s isoPoint system meets the clinical, technical, and operational requirements...
