4. CIRCUMSTANCES JUSTIFYING LIMITED SOURCES: per FAR 8.405-6(b) The rationale for the use of this authority is that the Physio-Control Lifepak CR Plus is a medical device that requires training on its use. Currently the 23 needing replacement are a small portion of the total number of the same model being used at the facility. To use anything other than the exact replacement will necessitate a facility wide retraining of all personnel and can create a situation where life saving measures will be delayed or wrongly performed due to differences in Automated External Defibrillators. The facility also maintains replacement parts for the units and any other models will cause an additional expense in creating an inventory of replacement parts for other units.
