Notice of Intent to Sole Source

HT941026N0070

THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE SERVICE PURCHASE ORDER AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. The Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity (DHACA), Western Markets Contracting Division (WMCD), San Diego, CA intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order with NanoSonics for preventive maintenance service of (4) NanoCare Pro Trophon2 devices (serial numbers 142282-018, 313148-001, 142282-080, and 142282-081) on behalf of the US Naval Hospital, Guam in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 12.201-1, Simplified procedures, only one source being available to meet the Government’s needs, to:

NanoSonics, Inc.

Unique Entity ID: DMVMSNMGJC36

CAGE: 7C8F4

7205 East 87th Street Indianapolis, IN 46256-1204

Period of Performance:

Base: 8/1/2026-7/31/2027 Option 1: 8/1/2027-7/31/2028 Option 2: 8/1/2028-7/31/2029 Option 3: 8/1/2029-7/31/2030 Option 4: 8/1/2030-7/31/2031

NanoSonics will be providing preventative maintenance service for four government-owned NanoCare Pro Trophon2 devices utilized by the US Naval Hospital, Guam. This will be a new purchase order and will consist of a base year along with four (4) additional option periods.

The rationale for the absence of competitive opportunities is outlined below.

NanoSonics has independently determined that only personnel who have been specifically trained and certified by NanoSonics will be authorized to provide service for the NanoCare Pro Trophon2 devices. NanoSonics is the manufacturer of the 4 government-owned NanoCare Pro Trophon2 devices and is the only vendor authorized to provide maintenance and repair services and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to maintain the machines. The only software and service technologies that are 100% compatible with these devices. Only OEM parts are permitted for all preventive maintenance and necessary repairs to the NanoCare Pro Trophon2 devices. All work must be performed by a Technician with OEM service training on the units for which they will perform service. This ensures that OEM services are provided and maintained according to the OEM terms and conditions. Consequently, only personnel trained and certified by the OEM are authorized to work on the equipment. Failure to meet this requirement jeopardizes equipment functionality and, by extension, patient safety. Existing NanoCare Pro Trophon2 Devices will need to be maintained by NanoSonics, who is the OEM to ensure maximum performance of NanoSonics Systems and the only authorized servicing and certified by NanoSonics including NanoCare Pro Trophon2 Devices.

And we confirmed that there are no third-party vendors authorized to do repairs or preventive maintenance on the Pro Trophon2 devices. It is important to note that any service attempted or performed by unauthorized personnel will void NanoSonics warranties and/or service agreements for the specific system, as per the provisions of NanoSonics product warranty policy and service agreements. Additionally, approved and proprietary parts required for servicing NanoSonics systems are exclusively available to ASP-authorized personnel as described above. Based on these facts, there are no opportunities for competition.
