STATEMENT OF NEED - REVISEDVA Pittsburgh Medical Center (HJ Heinz Campus)STATEMENT OF NEED AND GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR REPLACEMENT DENTAL CHAIRS BackgroundThe Pittsburgh VAMC (646A) has a brand name or equal (BNOE) requirement for eighteen (18) dental chairs, delivery systems, and accessories to be used in existing operatories.
