About this file

This document is a Single Source Justification (SSJ) for a simplified acquisition procedure (SAP) under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) for the maintenance and support of MiPACS Dental Equipment for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 23.

The justification explains that the MiPACS Dental Equipment requires specialized instruments and proprietary parts/software that can only be obtained from the original manufacturer or an authorized service provider. Market research identified no other small businesses, including Veteran-owned firms, capable of performing these services. A sole source announcement received no responses from qualified vendors. The Contracting Officer has certified the justification in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR).

The related federal contract opportunity is an award notice for contract 36C26324P0654, valued at $223,000, issued to LEAD TECHNOLOGIES, INC. for Biomedical Dental MiPACS Support services for the VA VISN 23.
