3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: A teleconferencing 4K router system is needed for upgrading the room to allow the Vascular service to view images and video material remotely. The images provide a 4K signal to allow the surgeon to visualize smaller internal vessels targeted for intervention. This is a quality and safety protocol. The new GE server that was installed a few weeks ago and without a 4K router, the GE server can only store the image data for Room-viewing and is unable to route it for external viewing required for training Residents and Fellows during procedures. The facility evaluated all other equipment offerings for patient safety, quality, and compatibility with existing OR infrastructure and modalities (including monitors and operating robots and instruments/probes) and Stryker’s functionality provided the best option as the new 4K router system will be compatible with all the other existing EOL OR Stryker equipment and monitor 4K/Windows 10, Cerner compatible upgrades. As is possible with multiple brands of equipment, there can be technology interferences and unexplained image/signal distortion during critical life-threatening peripheral vascular surgeries; therefore, the facility is committed to a more seamless patient-safe operating OR IT infrastructure that will be provided by Stryker.

In addition, the Stryker Connected OR IP router is 4K capable and can be saved for video editing. The 4K capability is an essential part of Hines VA Vascular service initiative to become a “Center of Excellence” for the VA. Unlike the infrastructure that was built in some OR rooms, the hybrid OR does not have the capability for remote viewing of a procedure in process directly from the GE imaging server. This procurement and installation will bring that room up to state-of-the-art standards.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: The required system is manufactured in Belgium and there is no SBA Class Waiver; therefore, this may only be set-aside for small businesses IAW 13 CFR 121.406(c).

A VIP search for NAICS 339112 and keywords, “Video Stream” or “Stryker” produced zero results. A search on GSA Advantage!, NAC MedSurg catalog, and NASA SEWP V produced zero results for the requested equipment.

The CO contacted the manufacturer, Stryker Communications, Inc., to request a list of authorized distributors. It indicated several different SDVOSBs that are authorized to distribute its products on the open market which can support its Communications Division.

The above market research reasonably evidence whether the VA Rule of Two can be met;

however, the non-manufacturer rule limits set-aside for any socio-economic class of small business to small businesses only.

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.

Jim Hedman Contracting Officer 1/10/2022
