About this file
This is a Single Source Justification document for a simplified acquisition by the Department of Veterans Affairs, VHA Regional Procurement Office-West Network, supporting VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System (VAGLAHS). The acquisition seeks urgent repair services for Government vehicle VA 25711, which requires replacement and installation of a new generation 3 V-Drive Kit due to internal component failure. The estimated cost is $80,553.90, positioning the purchase over the Micro-Purchase Threshold but not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
The justification cites compelling urgency and safety concerns as the basis for sole-source procurement under FAR 13.106-1. The vehicle, which transports patients to medical appointments, was taken to United Truck Centers Canoga shop after experiencing loud noises, inability to move forward or reverse, and fluid contamination with metal shavings indicating internal failure. Required repairs include replacement of hydraulic filter, V-drive, cooling system components, various fittings and pipes, brackets, mounts, gearbox plates, and lubricant (CITGO AW 100). The document notes that no additional market research was conducted due to the unusual and compelling urgency of service and the vehicle's unsafe condition. The Contracting Officer, David Odne, certified approval on September 9, 2026, per RFO 6.103-1(b).
