About this file
This document is a Justification for a Federal supply contract over the Micro-Purchase Threshold but not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) of $250,000. The requirement is for a BK Medical Biplane Endocavity Transducer, a proprietary medical device compatible only with the BK3000 Ultrasound system currently used by the Portland VA Medical Center. The government conducted market research and found that BK Medical Holdings is the only authorized manufacturer, with Four Points Technology as the only authorized distributor. The procurement will be competed between these two sources. The total estimated value is not provided. The associated NAICS code is 334510 with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The anticipated award is a firm-fixed price supply order, to be delivered within 30 days to the Portland VAMC.

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS
Justification FAR 13.106-1 For
Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K)
Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C260-24-AP-2128
1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, RPO West, Network Contracting Office 20 on behalf of Portland VA Medical Center. 648-24-2-095-0469
2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:
BK Medical Biplane Endocavity Trasnducer: This probe is used for prostrate biopsies.
ITEM PART NUMBER QUANTITY COST
E14CL4b Biplane Endocavity Transducer � Transrectal and Transvaginal
9048 1
3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:
In accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b) and VAAR 819.7008 this is a brand name requirement for which there is only one source, and it will be competed between authorized distributors. In addition, the Endocavity Transducer is used in conjunction with the BK3000 Ultrasound for prostrate biopsies.
Only BK transducers can be safely used with BK Ultrasounds. It is critically important during these procedures that the transducer is compatible with the ultrasound, both for patient safety, and results.
The facility currently has the BK Ultrasound System. The transducer is proprietary to BK Medical and is the only trasnducer compatible with the system.
4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:
Government widedatabases of contracts were searched. A search of SCMS, NAC, GSA, and Contract Directory. A search of the VA VIP database revealed 310 SDVOSB vendors potentially capable of supplying this requirement. However, Sources Sought Notice 36C26024Q0420 was posted from 03/19/2024-03/22/2024 revealing 1 authorized distributor, Four Points Technology, and the OEM, BK Medical Holdings, has confirmed that this is the only authorized distributor. Both the OEM, BK Medical, and the authorized distributor are able to fullfill this requirement.
FPDS was searched to establish price reasonableness and revealed awards to BK Medical and Four Points Technology.
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.
