About this file

This is a Single Source Justification document for a Simplified Acquisition Procedure (SAP) award under FAR 13.106-1 by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The contracting activity is VISN 20, White City Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC), located in White City, Oregon. The acquisition ID is 36C260-26-AP-0654, with a JOFOC reference of FY26-NCO20-467.

The requirement is for Lynx brand name software and support services over a base period plus four option years, specifically: (1) Lynx Standard Servicer SSA and (2) Lynx SMS Pro 10k SMS/Yr. These services support the existing Lynx Panic Duress System currently installed at White City VAMC's Southern Oregon Rehabilitation Center and Clinic (VA SORCC). The Lynx system is a critical security infrastructure that enables VA employees to trigger two-button panic alerts directly to VAPD Dispatch with real-time location data from both buildings and parking lots, facilitating rapid emergency response. The justification establishes that only Lynx brand software can be used as no alternative systems are compatible with the existing infrastructure, and patient and staff safety requirements necessitate this single-source approach. Market research conducted in December 2025 supports awarding this requirement as a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside. Contracting Officer Danielle Carrico approved and certified the justification on January 20, 2026.

1) Lynx Standard Servicer, SSA and 2) Lynx, SMS Pro 10k SMS/Yr. This requirement is in support of the current Lynx Panic Duress System at White City

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The White City VA Southern Oregon Rehabilitation Center and Clinic (VA SORCC) has an existing Lynx Security System. The Lynx duress system is an alarm system that provides each WCO VA SORCC computer’s with the ability to trigger a two-button alert tied directly to WCO VA SORCC VAPD Dispatch. The information relayed includes the building and room number relayed directly to VAPD dispatch for live time of emergency location. It also provides a parking lot panic system with direct communication to VAPD Dispatch to provide location within WCO VA SORCC federal grounds parking lots. The system provides instant panic alarm notification to local police service upon user activation.

Although there are multiple authorized Lynx distributors/dealers, only brand name software services for Lynx can be used in support of the existing Lynx systems which is a critical system to ensure safety of VA pateints and staff through quick alert and response of emergencies services. No other brand names may be used.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Market research was conducted in December 2025 by reviewing current other Agency catalogs, contacting Lynx for authorized dealers, contacting authorized Lynx dealers and reviewing SBA VetCert database. Market research supports competing this requirement as 100% SDVOSB set-aside.
