Roudebush VA Medical Center, Indianapolis, IN 46202.

2237: 583-22-3-190-0017

2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:

Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center has a requirement for a database management system for Interventional Radiology. The system must:

• Allow documentation of Interventional Radiology Services using Society of Interventional Radiology Service Tree Terminology

• Allow documentation of procedure complications per Society of Interventional Radiology Standards of Practice

• Allow documentation and analysis of quality assurance, scheduling, patient tracking and inventory information.

• Run on a Windows 10 platform

• Run on a virtual 2016 SQL server Estimated Cost: $55,935.03

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: ConexSys, Inc. holds the exclusive rights to sell licenses for the HI-IQ® software application. HI-IQ® cannot be procured from any other vendor or distributor. The Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) exclusively endorses HI-IQ as its preferred solution for meeting IR and member needs in the functional areas served by HI-IQ. HI-IQ is the only software product that contains SIR Standards of Practice, terminology and business rules related to the documentation of procedure related complications. SIR introduced HI-IQ in 1994 and today is a licensing partner to ConexSys, Inc., the developers of HI-IQ.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:

Informal market research was conducted. The results indicated the service being acquired is available in the commercial marketplace. A company already doing business with government accounts was found that offers exactly what we are looking for. They were found to be the only vendor who can supply all requirements of this procurement. VIP queried using NAICS 511210 along with key words “conexsys interventional radiology” resulted in 2 findings. Conxsys Inc holds (large) the exclusive rights to the required software. GSA queried using keywords “conexsys intervention radiology” resulted in zero findings.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
