Baxter Healthcare Corporation has provided a proprietary letter contained in the briefcase.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: A SBA Search was conducted using NAICS Code 811210 and Keyword Dialysis, and 2 vendors were returned on the search. However, due to the proprietary nature of the requirement, Baxter is the only vendor that is able to provide the service.

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.
