JEFO Elmendorf AFB Perseus POSTED.pdf

This document is a Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEFO) for Draeger Perseus Anesthesia Systems. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Medical Supply Chain, Capital Equipment Division is the contracting activity procuring seven (7) Draeger Perseus A500 Anesthesia Systems for Elmendorf AFB, Alaska, under contract SPE2D1-24-D-0009, valid through July 2029 under the Patient Monitoring program. The total estimated dollar value is $574,835.06.

The procurement is specifically to replace end-of-life legacy anesthesia devices at a Level II Trauma Center. The Draeger Perseus Anesthesia system is the only anesthesia system on contract with Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) mode, which offers critical advantages including longer inspiratory times, improved blood oxygenation, reduced water condensation, enhanced patient safety, and the ability to operate without consistent power. The contract pricing has been determined fair and reasonable, and DLA Troop Support will continue market research to locate additional sources for future anesthesia system acquisitions.
