DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For

Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K)

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C241-25-AP-0192

1. Contracting Activity: VHA, RPOE, NCO 1 on behalf of Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 1, Togus

VA Medical Center 2237: 402-25-1-4500-0003

2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: The Intellicart system is used in the OR department at the VA Maine Togus Campus. These Intellicart systems are used to manage surgical fluids and smoke waste hazards. These systems use a robust low-level disinfection cycle to clean and process the fluid cart reservoirs' interiors. Intellicart systems have to be maintained up to OEM specifications and put on regular maintenance intervals to ensure proper functionality. Due to this equipment's complexity and high-profile use, the OEM, Zimmer Biomet, is the only entity that can adequately service these devices. The service contract includes corrective and preventative maintenance tasks, which are essential to the OR's caseload and the overall mission of Togus VAMC.

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: Zimmer Biomet does not utilize third party service providers to perform service activities on Zimmer Biomet surgical devices within the United States.

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

Searched VetCert using NAICS 811210 resulted in 313 results. None of the 313 business can satisfy this requirement. A search was conducted in FPDS using the keyword Intellicart and PSC code J065 resulted in 8 matches related to Zimmer Biomet. A search in DSBS using NAICS 811210 and keyword Intellicart yielded zero results.

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.
