Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For

Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K)

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C242-21-AP-2979

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 02, Buffalo VA Medical Center.

The 2237 number is 528-21-4-4712-0199

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

VHAWNYHS Buffalo requires an Acumed Acutrak® 2 Micro AT2 Extension Tray System and AT2 Instruments for the Operating Room (Ortho) for upcoming foot surgical procedures. Acutrak® 2 Micro and Mini trays are intended for use as fixation devices for small bones, bone fragments, and osteotomies. Acutrak® 2 may also be used for fusions, fractures, or osteotomies of the clavicle, humerus, radius, ulna, ilium, femur, patella, fibula, tibia, talus, malleolus, and calcaneus.

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The foot tray has drills, implants, screws, cannulas, guides, templates, screw caddies and screwdrivers for O.R. Ortho Compression Fracture foot surgical cases. Currently, the O.R. uses this same vendor foot tray for foot Compression fracture surgical cases. VA standards require a 2nd, identical, back up tray by same vendor for continuity of standard of care for Veteran patients and their safety.

The Acumed Acutrak® 2 Headless Compression Screw System is patented by Acumed and is the latest evolution in fully threaded headless screw fixation, with intuitive instrumentation designed to simplify the surgical technique. The Buffalo VA Medical Center uses the Acumed Headless Screw Systems for orthopedic operations exclusively and it is the standardized product in the Ortho Operating Room.

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

Market research was conducted for Acumed orthopedic trays and instruments only as this is the standardized product used by the Orthopedic Operating Room at the Buffalo VAMC.

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.
