The Contracting Officer is the only person authorized to approve changes or modify any of the requirements under this BPA. The Contractor shall communicate with the Contracting Officer on all matters pertaining to BPA administration. Only the Contracting Officer is authorized to make commitment or issue changes that will affect price, quantity or quality of performance of this BPA. In the event the Contractor effects any such change at the direction of any person other than the Contracting

Officer, the change shall be considered to have been made without authority and no adjustment will be made in the BPA to cover any increase in cost incurred thereof.

2.2 BASIS OF AWARD

Determination has been made this procurement will be fulfilled by sole sourcing a single award BPA with

CAREFUSION SOLUTIONS, LLC, utilizing FSS Contract 36F79718D0454, i/a/w: FAR 8.405-6.

2.3 TYPE OF CONTRACT:

Information on parking is available from the VA Police. The VA will not invalidate or make reimbursement for parking violations of the Contractor under any conditions. Smoking is prohibited inside any buildings at the VA.

Possession of weapons is prohibited. Enclosed containers, including tool kits, shall be subject to search.

Violations of VA regulations may result in citation answerable in the United States (Federal) District

2.6 DELIVERY INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE

Government, for all deliverables furnished under any resulting order, hereby designates the facility point of contact Kimberly Bell at the Clement J. Zablocki VAMC and the Milo C. Huempfner Green Bay

Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) as the point of contact for the final inspection and acceptance.

2.7 MISCELLANEOUS REPORTING

Required registration with contractor performance assessment reporting system (CPARS):

As prescribed in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 42.15, the Department of Veterans Affairs

(VA) evaluates contractor past performance on all contracts that exceed the thresholds outlined in FAR

Part 42.15, and shares those evaluations with other Federal Government contract specialists and procurement officials through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS). The FAR requires that the contractor be provided an opportunity to comment on past performance evaluations prior to the posting of each report. To fulfill this requirement VA uses an online database, the Contractor

Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). The CPARS database information is uploaded to the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) database, which is available to all Federal agencies. Each contractor whose contract award is estimated to exceed the thresholds outlined in FAR

Part 42.15 is required to provide to the contracting officer contact information for the contractor’s representative with their response to the solicitation. The contractor is responsible to notify the contracting officer of any change to the contractor’s representative during the contract performance period. Contractor’s representative contact information consists of a name and email address.

The Government will register the contract within thirty days after contract award. For contracts with a period of one year or less, the contracting officer will perform a single evaluation when the contract is complete. For contracts exceeding one year, the contracting officer will evaluate the contractor’s performance annually. Intermediate reports will be filed each year until the last year of the contract, when the final report will be completed. Each report shall be forwarded in CPARS to the contractor’s designated representative for comment. The contractor’s representative will have thirty days to submit any comments and return the report to the VA contracting officer. Failure by the contractor to respond within those thirty days will result in the Government’s evaluation being placed on file in PPIRS without contractor’s comments.

2.8 PRODUCT MODIFICATION, REMOVAL OR RECALL

If any product awarded under this BPA requires modification, is removed or recalled by the Contractor or manufacturer, or if any required modification, removal or recall is suggested or mandated by a regulatory or official agency, the following steps will immediately be taken by the Contractor or manufacturer:

A. Notify the Contracting Officer, in writing, by the most expeditious manner possible. Provide two copies of the notification which shall include, but not be limited to the following:

(1) Complete item description and/or identification, order numbers from customers and the contract number of this BPA.

(2) Reasons for modifications, removal or recall.

(3) Necessary instructions for return for credit, replacement or corrective action.

Contractor shall be responsible for any costs associated with the above.

VA information systems for their employees, subcontractors, and affiliates only to the extent necessary to perform the services specified in the contract, agreement, or task order.

b. All contractors, subcontractors, and third-party servicers and associates working with VA information are subject to the same investigative requirements as those of VA appointees or employees who have access to the same types of information. The level and process of background security investigations for contractors must be in accordance with VA Directive and Handbook 0710, Personnel Suitability and

Security Program. The Office for Operations, Security, and Preparedness is responsible for these policies and procedures.

e. The contractor or subcontractor must notify the Contracting Officer immediately when an employee working on a VA system or with access to VA information is reassigned or leaves the contractor or subcontractor’s employ. The Contracting Officer must also be notified immediately by the contractor or subcontractor prior to an unfriendly termination.

2. VA INFORMATION CUSTODIAL LANGUAGE

HIPPA Compliance Statement:

Department of Veterans Affairs is fully compliant with the HIPAA Standards for Privacy, Electronic

Transactions and Security (including the HITECH Act and the Omnibus Rule of 2013). Department of

Veterans Affairs has implemented policies, processes, and procedures designed to ensure compliance with

Federal and State information security laws, regulations, rules and monitors ongoing compliance efforts and maintains various reporting mechanisms that are required by law or requested by its customers.

Department of Veterans Affairs recognizes that it is a key business partner with its customers and will continue to provide all of its various programs and services in accordance with the relevant requirements of all state and federal laws and regulations, including, as applicable, HIPAA.

a. Information made available to the contractor or subcontractor by VA for the performance or administration of this contract or information developed by the contractor/subcontractor in performance or administration of the contract shall be used only for those purposes and shall not be used in any other way without the prior written agreement of the VA. This clause expressly limits the contractor/subcontractor's rights to use data as described in Rights in Data - General, FAR 52.227-14(d)

(1).

b. VA information should not be co-mingled, if possible, with any other data on the contractor/ subcontractor’s information systems or media storage systems in order to ensure VA requirements related to data protection and media sanitization can be met. If co-mingling must be allowed to meet the requirements of the business need, the contractor must ensure that VA’s information is returned to the VA or destroyed in accordance with VA’s sanitization requirements. VA reserves the right to conduct on-site inspections of contractor and subcontractor IT resources to ensure data security controls, separation of data and job duties, and destruction/media sanitization procedures are in compliance with VA directive requirements.

c. Prior to termination or completion of this contract, contractor/subcontractor must not destroy information received from VA, or gathered/created by the contractor in the course of performing this contract without prior written approval by the VA. Any data destruction done on behalf of VA by a contractor/subcontractor must be done in accordance with National Archives and Records Administration

(NARA) requirements as outlined in VA Directive 6300, Records and Information Management and its

Handbook 6300.1 Records Management Procedures, applicable VA Records Control Schedules, and VA

Handbook 6500.1, Electronic Media Sanitization. Self-certification by the contractor that the data destruction requirements above have been met must be sent to the VA Contracting Officer within 30 days of termination of the contract.

d. The contractor/subcontractor must receive, gather, store, back up, maintain, use, disclose and dispose of VA information only in compliance with the terms of the contract and applicable Federal and VA information confidentiality and security laws, regulations and policies. If Federal or VA information confidentiality and security laws, regulations and policies become applicable to the VA information or information systems after execution of the contract, or if NIST issues or updates applicable FIPS or

Special Publications (SP) after execution of this contract, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to implement the information confidentiality and security laws, regulations and policies in this contract.

e. The contractor/subcontractor shall not make copies of VA information except as authorized and necessary to perform the terms of the agreement or to preserve electronic information stored on contractor/subcontractor electronic storage media for restoration in case any electronic equipment or data used by the contractor/subcontractor needs to be restored to an operating state. If copies are made for restoration purposes, after the restoration is complete, the copies must be appropriately destroyed.

f. If VA determines that the contractor has violated any of the information confidentiality, privacy, and security provisions of the contract, it shall be sufficient grounds for VA to withhold payment to the contractor or third party or terminate the contract for default or terminate for cause under Federal

Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 12.

g. If a VHA contract is terminated for cause, the associated BAA must also be terminated and appropriate actions taken in accordance with VHA Handbook 1600.01, Business Associate Agreements. Absent an agreement to use or disclose protected health information, there is no business associate relationship.

h. The contractor/subcontractor must store, transport, or transmit VA sensitive information in an encrypted form, using VA-approved encryption tools that are, at a minimum, FIPS 140-2 validated.

i. The contractor/subcontractor’s firewall and Web services security controls, if applicable, shall meet or exceed VA’s minimum requirements. VA Configuration Guidelines are available upon request.

j. Except for uses and disclosures of VA information authorized by this contract for performance of the contract, the contractor/subcontractor may use and disclose VA information only in two other situations:

(i) in response to a qualifying order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) with VA’s prior written approval. The contractor/subcontractor must refer all requests for, demands for production of, or inquiries about, VA information and information systems to the VA contracting officer for response.

k. Notwithstanding the provision above, the contractor/subcontractor shall not release VA records protected by Title 38 U.S.C. 5705, confidentiality of medical quality assurance records and/or Title 38

U.S.C. 7332, confidentiality of certain health records pertaining to drug addiction, sickle cell anemia, alcoholism or alcohol abuse, or infection with human immunodeficiency virus. If the contractor/subcontractor is in receipt of a court order or other requests for the above mentioned information, that contractor/subcontractor shall immediately refer such court orders or other requests to the VA contracting officer for response.

l. For service that involves the storage, generating, transmitting, or exchanging of VA sensitive information but does not require C&A or an MOU-ISA for system interconnection, the contractor/subcontractor must complete a Contractor Security Control Assessment (CSCA) on a yearly basis and provide it to the COTR.

3. SECURITY INCIDENT INVESTIGATION

a. The term “security incident” means an event that has, or could have, resulted in unauthorized access to, loss or damage to VA assets, or sensitive information, or an action that breaches VA security procedures.

The contractor/subcontractor shall immediately notify the COTR and simultaneously, the designated ISO and Privacy Officer for the contract of any known or suspected security/privacy incidents, or any unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, including that contained in system(s) to which the contractor/subcontractor has access.

b. To the extent known by the contractor/subcontractor, the contractor/subcontractor’s notice to VA shall identify the information involved, the circumstances surrounding the incident (including to whom, how, when, and where the VA information or assets were placed at risk or compromised), and any other information that the contractor/subcontractor considers relevant.

c. With respect to unsecured protected health information, the business associate is deemed to have discovered a data breach when the business associate knew or should have known of a breach of such information. Upon discovery, the business associate must notify the covered entity of the breach.

Notifications need to be made in accordance with the executed business associate agreement.

d. In instances of theft or break-in or other criminal activity, the contractor/subcontractor must concurrently report the incident to the appropriate law enforcement entity (or entities) of jurisdiction, including the VA OIG and Security and Law Enforcement. The contractor, its employees, and its subcontractors and their employees shall cooperate with VA and any law enforcement authority responsible for the investigation and prosecution of any possible criminal law violation(s) associated with any incident. The contractor/subcontractor shall cooperate with VA in any civil litigation to recover VA information, obtain monetary or other compensation from a third party for damages arising from any incident, or obtain injunctive relief against any third party arising from, or related to, the incident.

4. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR DATA BREACH

a. Consistent with the requirements of 38 U.S.C. §5725, a contract may require access to sensitive personal information. If so, the contractor is liable to VA for liquidated damages in the event of a data breach or privacy incident involving any SPI the contractor/subcontractor processes or maintains under this contract.

b. The contractor/subcontractor shall provide notice to VA of a “security incident” as set forth in the

Security Incident Investigation section above. Upon such notification, VA must secure from a non-Department entity or the VA Office of Inspector General an independent risk analysis of the data breach to determine the level of risk associated with the data breach for the potential misuse of any sensitive personal information involved in the data breach. The term 'data breach' means the loss, theft, or other unauthorized access, or any access other than that incidental to the scope of employment, to data containing sensitive personal information, in electronic or printed form, that results in the potential compromise of the confidentiality or integrity of the data. Contractor shall fully cooperate with the entity performing the risk analysis. Failure to cooperate may be deemed a material breach and grounds for contract termination.

c. Each risk analysis shall address all relevant information concerning the data breach, including the following:

(1) Nature of the event (loss, theft, unauthorized access);

(2) Description of the event, including:

(a) date of occurrence;

(b) data elements involved, including any PII, such as full name, social security number, date of birth, home address, account number, disability code;

(3) Number of individuals affected or potentially affected;

(4) Names of individuals or groups affected or potentially affected;

(5) Ease of logical data access to the lost, stolen or improperly accessed data in light of the degree of protection for the data, e.g., unencrypted, plain text;

(6) Amount of time the data has been out of VA control;

(7) The likelihood that the sensitive personal information will or has been compromised (made accessible to and usable by unauthorized persons);

(8) Known misuses of data containing sensitive personal information, if any;

(9) Assessment of the potential harm to the affected individuals;

(10) Data breach analysis as outlined in 6500.2 Handbook, Management of Security and Privacy

Incidents, as appropriate; and

(11) Whether credit protection services may assist record subjects in avoiding or mitigating the results of identity theft based on the sensitive personal information that may have been compromised.

d. Based on the determinations of the independent risk analysis, the contractor shall be responsible for paying to the VA liquidated damages in the amount $35.00 dollars for each user breach.

5. TRAINING

a. All contractor employees and subcontractor employees requiring access to VA information and VA information systems shall complete the following before being granted access to VA information and its systems:

(1) Sign and acknowledge (either manually or electronically) understanding of and responsibilities for compliance with the Contractor Rules of Behavior, Appendix E relating to access to VA information and information systems;

(2) Successfully complete the VA Privacy and Information Security Awareness and Rules of Behavior training and annually complete required security training;

(3) Successfully complete the appropriate VA Privacy training and annually complete required privacy training; and

(4) Successfully complete any additional Information Security/Cyber Security or Privacy training, as required for VA personnel with equivalent information system access [to be defined by the VA program official and provided to the contracting officer for inclusion in the solicitation document – e.g., any role-based information security training required in accordance with NIST Special Publication 800-16, Information Technology Security Training Requirements.]

b. The contractor shall provide to the contracting officer and/or the COTR a copy of the training certificates and certification of signing the Contractor Rules of Behavior for each applicable employee within 1 week of the initiation of the contract and annually thereafter, as required.

c. Failure to complete the mandatory annual training and sign the Rules of Behavior annually, within the timeframe required, is grounds for suspension or termination of all physical or electronic access privileges and removal from work on the contract until such time as the training and documents are complete.

B.7 STATEMENT OF WORK

7.1 BACKGROUND

The Clement J. Zablocki VAMC and the Milo C. Huempfner CBOC needs updated automated dispensing cabinets (ADC), including support services, to replace the current cabinets which are at end of life.

Currently the facilities utilize the Pyxis Medstation 4000 system. Only the cabinets are being replaced.

The server and all software will continue to operate on the MedStation 4000 platform. In addition to continuing to use the MedStation 4000 platform, the current CII safe, single and double auxiliary towers will be maintained. The required cabinets shall be compatible with the Pyxis MedStation 4000 platform and auxiliary towers currently in use.

7.2 INTENT

The facilities need the ADCs for care of Veteran patients. Since the facilities currently utilize the Pyxis

Medstation 4000 system, it is in the best interest of the Government to establish a sole source BPA as the

ADCs utilized shall be fully compatible with the existing equipment and only the provider of the equipment, CAREFUSION SOLUTIONS, LLC, can provide the requirement, including support services.

Pursuant to Federal Supply Schedule (FSS), it is the intent to establish a Pharmacy ADC Blanket

Purchase Agreement (BPA) for the cabinets. The award of this BPA is pursuant to Federal Supply

Schedule (FSS) FSC Group 65, Part II A (Medication and Supply Packaging and Dispensing Equipment and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.404 authorizing the establishment of a BPA to the FSS contract holder offering the ‘best value’ to the Government. The Government will award a BPA to a single contractor for the ADCs. Contractor agrees to the following terms of the BPA exclusively with the

Clement J. Zablocki VAMC and the Milo C. Huempfner Green Bay CBOC.

Preventive maintenance inspections shall be scheduled at least three (3) days in advance with the facility point of contact. Support also includes all necessary intervening service calls required to replace any worn or defective part needed due to instrument failure.

The VA shall try to resolve any problem first before calling the Contractor.

ETN parts are components, assemblies, or partial products which have had prior usage, but have been inspected, reworked, and tested as required so that their function, performance, and appearance shall be essentially equivalent to that of new parts.

Regardless of whether parts are new or ETN, Contractor’s appropriate warranties apply. The contractor shall provide on-site field service necessary to keep the Pyxis Products and CareFusion’s side of any interfaces (collectively, the “Pyxis System”) performing in accordance with the material specifications of the applicable user manuals (“Properly Performing”).

(A) Adjust parts on the System from time to time;

(B) Repair System operational malfunctions;

(C) Replace all CUBIE Pockets that fail to work for any reason other than external cause

(D) Replace and install Software, Hardware, and mechanical equipment for safety and reliability;
