Q301--VISN 4 Lab Testing Services - (Finger Tip Glove / Equipment Testing)

would only be one HD for each swab. CLIN0002- Is this CLIN only for the analysis of media fill kits? Do you need us to supply the media fill test kits? CLIN0008 Is for the media fill test?� It is confusing. I would think the quantities would match up.� A lot of times we will see kits, incubation, and analysis, as one CLIN. All facilities will utilize CLIN0002, NOT ALL facilities will need to order CLIN 0008 due to them already having a vendor they order from, that is the difference between the quantities.� But we want to make the kits available, should a facility want to start ordering kits from the vendor the contract is awarded to.� Could you provide us with the testing kits that you currently use? Some of the varieties of testing kits we use are: Finger Plates- 100mm Tryptic Soy Agar; Hardy Diagnostics TSA with L&T contact plates, TSA w/neutralizers CT 3P IR; Manufactured by bioMérieux (Reference number � 420765); Health Care Logistics Finger Testing Contact Plates 100mm #19374 and Surface Testing Contact Plates 60mm19373; � � � � � � � � � � � � Media Fill- Cultivate Personal Aseptic Kit Ref #TBVA123, GroMed GM7030, Health Care Logistics Media Test kit, Multi-Tech#19873; HardyVal CSP MED-COMPLEXITY 2 KIT � ; Manufactured by Hardy (Reference number: HVM2); medium risk media fill test kit (vials, not bags) CLIN0006- Are you looking for 1,465 packs of plates or 146 sleeves (each sleeve contains 10 plates)? It states PG as the type- could you please clarify? The PG stands for package . If the plates/paddles come in a package (PG)/sleeves of 10 s, the amount they want to order is a total of 293 packs per year, making the 5-year total 1,465.� Can you please clarify who will be doing the sampling? 6.1 States the VA personnel will be performing.� Item 9.1.2 States that the contractor shall be able to provide contracted personnel, as requested, to support facility request.� Are the hours for the contractor covered in CLINs 0012 and 0013 covering it?� I am reading this as we will provide support on an as needed basis.� Those support days are covered in CLIN 0012 and 0013.� -The VA staff will be doing the sampling.� -Two facilities (Wilkes-Barre, CLIN0012, and Coatesville, CLIN0013) will like to have contracted personnel come on station every 6mths to assist them with collecting samples. -CLIN0012 and CLIN0013 pricing is to cover expenses for someone to come on site to take sample for testing If I am reading this correctly, we will be shipping supplies to each site each month and will send out media fill kits semi-annual along with Glove/fingertip.� We will be on site as needed to help. -Yes, you will be sending supplies to the requesting stations monthly. -CLINs 0012 / 0013 you are asked to go to the stations to help collect samples for testing.
