2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: This requiremet is for an EndoRotor Endoscopic Surgery System for endoscopic procedures.

The estimated value of the proposed action is: $33,000.00

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

Requirement is for an EndoRotor endoscopic surgery system. The EndoRotor device is a novel device, in which there is no similar device and/or competition. Interscope Inc., is the manufacturer with Micro-Tech Endoscopy USA Inc. as its only distributor. The EndoRotor allows physicians to simultaneously dissect, resect and collect tissue samples instead of the use of multiple instruments required to accomplish these individual tasks. This makes it unique in the industry as there aren’t any instruments that can be used to perform the same tasks.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Interscope Inc., the manufacturer, was contacted to research if they had any SDVOSB or VOSB distributors. They stated this was a new equipment which is propriatery to their company with only one other distributor, Micro-Tech Endoscopy. Micro-Tech Endoscopy USA Inc was contacted and they replied that they could provide a quote for this requirement. Micro-Tech Endoscopy Inc. is registered and current as a vendor in Sam.gov.

5. Technical and Requirements Certification: I certify that the supporting data under my cognizance, which are included in this justification, are accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
