P03 Attach 1 Single Source Justification MPT-SAT_AP0392_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification, which provides the rationale for a sole source procurement. The procurement is for Minimed Infusion Sets, which are medical supplies required by the Department of Veterans Affairs for the Veterans Health Administration in VISN 15. The justification states that Minimed is the sole manufacturer of these proprietary infusion sets, which are compatible with the existing Minimed insulin pumps used by VA patients. The single source procurement is necessary to ensure continuity of care and patient safety, as switching infusion sets would require reprogramming the insulin pumps. The estimated value of the contract is $1,612,500 over a 5-year period. No small business set-aside is applicable, as Minimed is the sole source provider.
