Justification for Single Source Awards For

Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C241-26-AP-4068

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 01, West Haven Medical Center, 950 Campbell Avenue, West Haven, CT 06516.

2237: 689-26-4-7821-0203

2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:

The Nuclear Medicine Department at VA Connecticut Healthcare System (VACT) requires the Capintec - Mirion 5430-3136 CAPRAC-t Touch Screen Wipe Test/Well Counter for routine wipe testing and sample measurement.

This well counter is essential for compliance with NRC/VA safety and quality standards and is intended to be used in conjunction with already-existing Capintec™ CRC-55tR Dose Calibrator and the Nuclear Medicine Information System (NMIS). The CAPRAC-t provides precise, compliant measurement capability, ensures seamless interoperability with current equipment and software, and supports efficient, regulatory-compliant workflows within the department.

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

The CAPRAC-t Touch Screen Wipe Test/Well Counter is uniquely compatible with the VACT’s existing Mirion Capintec™ CRC-55tR Dose Calibrator and NMIS. Both the dose calibrator and well counter originate from the same manufacturer, ensuring seamless interoperability in calibration, data exchange, maintenance, support, and reporting procedures. The NMIS system has robust integration with Capintec solutions, and replacing the well counter with a model from any other manufacturer would require substantial revisions to interfacing, data transfer, SOPs, and staff retraining. Alternative models on the market are primarily industrial-grade instruments that do not fit the footprint, workflow, data integration, or support model required by our nuclear medicine operations. Thus, only the Capintec - Mirion CAPRAC-t Touch Screen Well Counter can meet our technical, operational, and regulatory requirements without creating significant operational risk, workflow disruption, and additional cost.
