Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 806.3 For Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K) and for COVID-19 Emergency Acquisitions Not Exceeding the SAT ($750K)

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C248-20-AP-2318

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 08, C.W. Bill Young VA Medical Center, Bay Pines, FL 33744.

Purchase request number is: 516-20-3-2117-0050

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

This is a COVID-19 Emergency requirement for C.W. Bill Young VA Healthcare System (Bay Pines). There is an emergent request for additional hospital beds due to COVID-19 for an increased need for hospital beds. We are procuring hospital beds with mattresses, Model # CVD-STD-HILO-FM-VA, to expand healthcare capabilities for COVID-19 patients from Joerns, LLC. Joerns, LLC has the ability to immediately (next day) deliver/supply these beds/mattresses. This will be a fixed priced contract with a base of three (3) months and one (1) option period of three (3) months. The base pricing is $273,600.00 and the three (3) month option period is also $273,600.00. If the base and option period were utilized the entire contract would be $475,200.00.

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

Due to limited availability of hospital beds required to expand healthcare capabilities to treat COVID-19 patients, Joerns, LLC, is the only vendor that Bay Pines was able locate to meet the governments needs by providing the required type and quantities of beds/mattresses needed and supplying them in the required timeframe (next day). Delays in delivery are determined to be unacceptable as every moment is vital in the successful care and treatment of COVID-19 patients.

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

Due to an emergent need for additional hospital beds during the COVID-19 pandemic, a search of suppliers on the VIP website and the internet was conducted as well as phone contact with known suppliers of hospital beds. Market availability is extremely scarce due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is determined Joerns, a current supplier of rental beds at our facility, was able to meet our emergent need. They currently have the required beds/mattresses and quantities in stock which will allow Bay Pines to expand capabilities of treatment to patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the requirement outlined in this justification is a Bona Fide Need of the Department of Veterans Affairs and that the supporting data under my cognizance, which are included in the justification, are accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
