About this file
This is a Single Source Justification document for a federal contract award under simplified acquisition procedures. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network/Program Contracting Office 23, seeks to award a single-source contract to Probo Medical (Alpha Source INC) for bone density training services supporting the Iowa City VA Health Care System. The estimated contract value is $4,500.00, falling above the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold.
The justification establishes that Probo Medical is the sole qualified source to provide these services because Alpha Source INC is the only certified service provider for GE Healthcare's Bone Mineral Densitometry (Lunar BMD) products in the United States, pursuant to an agreement entered on April 19, 2016. The market research conducted included queries across multiple small business databases using NAICS Code 611710 and UEI Code VBZ8MLC91R23, which identified various certified veteran-owned and women-owned small businesses but none capable of providing the specialized bone density training required. The vendor is registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with an expiration date of December 10, 2026. Contracting Officer Becky De Los Santos certified the justification as accurate and complete in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b), with a certification date of September 29, 2026.
