JEFO Elmendorf AFB ATLAN POSTED.pdf

This document is a Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEFO) for a Draeger Atlan Anesthesia System. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Medical Supply Chain, Capital Equipment Division is the contracting activity, seeking to acquire one Draeger Atlan Anesthesia system for Elmendorf AFB, Alaska under contract SPE2D1-24-D-0009, valid through July 2029 for the Patient Monitoring program. The total estimated dollar value is $82,139.06.

The procurement is specifically for an anesthesia delivery system for bronchoscopies, with the Atlan system uniquely suited for these procedures compared to existing Draeger Perseus units. Key justifications include the Atlan's better performance during bronchoscopies, offering a jet piston ventilation system with lung-protective strategies, and more reliable delivery of appropriate tidal volumes. The contracting officer has determined the pricing is fair and reasonable through comparison with commercial pricing, and DLA Troop Support will continue market research to locate alternative sources for future procurements of anesthesia systems within the Patient Monitoring program.
