3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

Proprietary software included in the console allows the user to customize and save how the instrument responds when pressure is applied during use and allows custom torque settings.

Additionally, the console has integral irrigation pump system to supply collant/irrigation to the cutting site which can be adjusted for flow and acceleration. Instruments have increase ergonomic aspects and lighter than competing instrucments, reducing hand strain and fatigue for users.

Instruments also have the highest protective coating on the market which withstands sterilization processes better than other products, increasing the functionality and lifespan of the instruments.

The universal collet instrument grips wires and pins in the range of .7-3.2mm, a requirement of the Ft. Meade VAMC. Lastly, the saw blades and burrs that are currently stocked at the VAMC are only compatible with the Stryker saw/drills. Purchasing a different vendor’s product would result in duplication and a waste in funds.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:

This is a brand name only procurement. While there are multiple SD/VOSBs working under the NAICS code the OEM, Stryker, only authorizes three SDVOSBs to resell their equipment. The products required are not on a government wide contract in which an order can be placed against.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
