About this file
This is a Single Source Justification document for a simplified acquisition procedure (SAP) under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs, VA Sierra Pacific Network (VISN) 21, specifically the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System (VASNHS) located in North Las Vegas, Nevada. The acquisition ID is 36C261-25-AP-4211, with transaction number PR # 593-26-2-543-0263.
VASNHS requires the replacement of two FLOFAB TB-1086-2A Heat Exchangers for their clean steam generator system. The existing heat exchanger tube bundles are failing due to end-of-service life, corrosion, and numerous holes causing leakage that affects heating hot water and clean steam distribution to clinical areas. The justification establishes that the current system at the VA Medical Center Las Vegas is only compatible with this specific model, and immediate repair is necessary to prevent steam generator failure and service disruption to critical areas including the Operating Room and Sterile Processing Services. Nevada Boiler Parts, LLC, a registered small business and authorized FLOFAB distributor, is identified as the only readily available source. Market research through the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), VA National Acquisition Center (NAC), and General Services Administration (GSA) yielded zero results for the specific product. Two informal quotes were obtained: Nevada Boiler Parts, LLC quoted $35,592.00, and Consumer Pipe Supply Co. quoted $56,349.31, though the latter is classified as a large business and therefore ineligible. The Contracting Officer certified the justification on 01/26/2026 in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b).

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VA Sierra Pacific Network (VISN) 21, VA
Southern Nevada Healthcare System (VASNHS), 6900 North Pecos Road, North Las Vegas, NV 89086.
The transaction number is PR # 593-26-2-543-0263
2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:
This justification document details VASNHS�s request to replace two (2) FLOFAB �TB-1086-2A� Heat Exchangers. The current clean steam generator heat exchanger tube bundles are failing due to end of service life, corrosion, and numerous holes causing leakage affecting heating hot water and clean steam to the various clinical servicing areas.
3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:
The current system used at the VA Medical Center (VAMC) Las Vegas is only compatible with the FLOFAB �TB-1086-2A� Heat Exchangers. Immediate repair is needed to prevent steam generator failure causing patient care and work stoppage to the Operating Room (OR), Sterile Processing Services (SPS) and other servicing areas in the hospital. Nevada Boiler Parts, LLC, is the only small business readily available and is an authorized distributor of the FLOFAB product.
4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:
A search of the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), for �TB-1086-2A� resulted in zero (0) contract actions. A search of the VA National Acquisition Center (NAC) for �TB-1086-2A� retrieved zero (0) records. A search of General Services Administration (GSA) for �TB-1086-2A� retrieved zero
(0) records. A search of the term �FLOFAB� on all three sites resulted in zero (0) products.
Two informal quotes were provided for this requirement during market research. The first is Nevada Boiler Parts, LLC ($35,592.00). The second quote received is from Consumer Pipe Supply Co.
($56,349.31.00). A search of the System Award Management (SAM) .gov revealed Consumer Pipe Supply Co. being listed as a large business, which would elimate this firm from competiting for the requirement. A search for Nevada Boiler Parts, LLC on SAM.gov identifies this as registered small
