About this file

This document contains a justification for a single source award and a related federal contract opportunity notice. The Department of Veterans Affairs Ann Arbor Healthcare System Network Contracting Office awarded a contract to Fidelis Sustainability Distribution LLC for $290,971.86 on July 6, 2020. The award was for six Servo-U ventilators manufactured by Getinge needed urgently due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the VA's current fleet of ventilators are the Servo-U model, it was imperative to purchase the same ventilators to allow staff to use them immediately without requiring training. Fidelis is the authorized SDVOSB distributor for Getinge ventilators, and time was of importance as lead times had increased from 6-8 weeks to 16 weeks. The justification cited the unusual and compelling urgency as well as Fidelis' status as an SDVOSB in awarding the contract on a single source basis.

Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K)

(EMERGENCY COVID-19 THRESHOLD $750K)

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C250-20-AP-3909

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, NCO 10, VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System, submitted PR 506-20-2-1565-1280 for supplies.

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

The following items are being requested by the John D. Dingell VA Medical Center. These items will meet the minimum needs of the facility. The procurement package and the identified items were submitted by the clinical staff. A fully funded 2237 has been provided.

Delivery date: Need as soon as possible as all ventilators are currently in use, however, the manufacturer currently has a lead time of 16 Weeks.

SDVOSB has confirmed there is a 5-year warranty on these items.

Purchase six (6) Servo U Ventilators (EMERGENCY COVID-19 PURCHASE).

Model # GETINGE-6694800 - Base unit SERVO-U with all associated parts.

Estimated Amount: $259037.05

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

Due to the pandemic COVID19 the Ann Arbor VAMC is in emergent need of ventilators. The clinical staff has concurred that this is the model of ventilator that is needed as they have an existing infrastructure utilizing this equipment. The VA’s current fleet of ventilators are the Servo-U ventilator, manufactured by Getinge. It is imperative that the purchase be Servo-U ventilators to allow the staff the ability to use the ventilators immediately with no training. Fidelis (the requested vendor) is a verified SDVOSB and is the authorized SDVOSB distributor for Getinge. Time is of importance on this procurement because in the span of a week and a half, the lead time has gone from 6-8 weeks to now 16 weeks. Due to the Unusual and Compelling Urgency of this request, this will be awarded to Fidelis Sustainability. The SDVOSB concern has been determined to be a responsible source with respect to performance. The manufacturer has also provided a memo indicating that Fidelis is their SDVOSB distributor.

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

GSA was searched and there is one small business vendor that these can be purchased from, Technical Communities Inc. There are two open market sources, Fidelis, a SDVOSB and the manufacturer, Getinge, a large business. Due to the emergent nature and the market conditions, Fidelis Sustainability Distribution. Additionally, Fidelis Sustainability Distribution is a SDVOSB.

A waiver will be sought from the SBA due to the NMR.

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.
