2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:

Qty 1 Biomerieux BACT/ALERT Virtuo Blood Culture Testing System, includes install and training

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

The current blood culture testing system is at its end-of-life. The Virtuo testing system will replace two analyzers within the current system, therefore able to fit within the laboratory footprint. The Virtuo system also is the only system compatible with the middleware Myla which notifies the laboratory (which is located on a different floor) when tests are positive. This software also interfaces with the electronic patient record system, a requirement for accreditation. The Virtuo system also connects with other existing microbiology equipment within the laboratory.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:

VetBiz was searched using NAICS 334516 – 128 results returned. Not available from any other source besides an open market purchase directly from the manufacturer.

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.
