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

The following databases were viewed in the market research for this requirement, (VetCert, GSA Advantage, SBA/DSBS, & SCMC) to find the requested item(s).

An additional VetCert search on 2/5/2025 under NAICS code 339113 resulted in nine hundred and thirty-five (935) certified veteran-owned businesses (SDVOSB and VOSB). This search is required per VA market research policy. It fails to give an accurate view of the veteran-owned businesses authorized to sell Eyecon M9420 & Barcode Scanners. This search is recognized but can only be relied upon as accurate with additional research.

A product search of GSA Advantage on 2/5/2025 using the keywords “Eyecon” resulted in zero (0) responses.

SBA/DSBS search was conducted on 2/5/2025 using the keywords “Eyecon M9420” with NAICS “339113,” which resulted in zero (0) suppliers/vendors.

Conducted an SCMS search on 2/5/2025 using the keywords “Eyecon” resulting in one (1) finding, ScriptPro. The Model we are looking to procure is M9420 not the M9430.

A sources sought notice was posted to SAM on 1/29/2025. The notice closed on

2/5/2025 at noon, resulted in two (2) written responses, ScriptPro USA, Inc.

(LB) and Veterans Healthcare Supply Solutions, Inc. (SDVOSB). They have been verified in VetCet and have provided written interest in this requirement.

The Contracting Officer concluded from the results of the market research that there were insufficient SDVOSBs or VOSBs with both interest and capability to meet the VA Rule of Two, IAW VAAR 819.70. Therefore, a set aside for VOSB providers or SDVOSB providers is not a viable strategy for this procurement.

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.
