2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:
Maintenance, repair, and replacement parts of Carl Zeiss Meditec eye equipment for Central Iowa VA Health Care System.

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.
