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

Initially, the market research conducted found that there were at least two potential manufacturers of the endoscope drying and storage cabinets. A search on VIP found 350 SDVOSBs/VOSBs for NAICS 339112. However, more specifically, a VIP search using the Medivators brand found one SDVOSB. There were two SDVOSBs found searching FPDS for VA related orders for endoscope drying and storage cabinets. A search on SBA.gov did not find any small businesses related to endoscope drying and storage cabinets. The NAICS 339112 is not on the Non-Manufacturer Rule (NMR) Class Waiver List. Medivators is a large business. This can be a small business set-aside with quotes to be received from Medivators authorized distributors.
