About this file

This single source justification document is for the procurement of an Olympus VICERA ELITE II Surgical Imaging System with accessories from Olympus as a brand name only requirement by the Salisbury VA Healthcare System. The medical imaging equipment is required to maintain standardization across the health care system as staff travels between facilities, and using compatible Olympus equipment and accessories is essential to prevent errors and ensure patient safety. Market research identified Olympus and one authorized distributor as being able to fulfill the requirement. The justification was certified by the contracting officer in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b).

The related federal contract opportunity is solicitation number 36C24623Q1024 for an nCare medical recorder to be awarded by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration VISN 6.

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: 36C246-23-AP-3276

1. Contracting Activity: Network Contracting Office 6 for the Salisbury VA Healthcare System

(SVAHCS). PR: 659-23-3-048-0264.

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

This requirement is for Brand Name only Olympus VICERA ELITE II Surgical Imaging System OTV-S200 with power cord, nCare medical recorder ISM-1006539, and 15” nCare Medical Grade Touch Panel ISM-1007451. The equipment is used during all endoscopic procedures in conjunction with scopes for diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional care of veteran patients.

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

This is a brand name requirement for Olympus equipment. The SVAHCS requires Brand Name Only Olympus VICERA ELITE II Surgical Imaging System OTV-S200 with power cord, nCare medical recorder ISM-1006539, and 15” nCare Medical Grade Touch Panel ISM-1007451. The SVAHCS owns multiple Olympus brand name equipment/scopes across the health care system. Maintaining standardization of equipment/scopes across the health care system as staff travels between all three facilities is essential. Standardization of equipment and accessories decreases errors in equipment/accessories or cleaning process. Mixed/incompatible technology can lead to mistakes and affect patient safety. Brand Name only Olympus imaging system that is compatible with Olympus equipment owned by the medical center, including endoscopes and camera heads. Any change to the brand name equipment would require the medical center to purchase additional equipment at a significant cost to the government that is not anticipated to be recovered through competition.

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

Searches of VetCert, VIP, NAC, SAC, eCMS, and FPDS were performed. One SDVOSB authorized distributor, Alliant Enterprises, and the OEM, Olympus, were identified as being able to provide the required equipment.

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.
