5. Reasons for Authority Cited:

Bayer Healthcare is the sole source provider for maintenance/services for the Medrad CT Injection System (Stellant D) and provided their sole source letter. RACH currently owns the Medrad CT Injection System (Stellant D) System. This request is for the maintenance to this Government-owned system. Bayer Healthcare, LLC. has not designated any other company as an authorized service provider due to the proprietary nature of the equipment. RAHC does not have the organic capability to perform the maintenance services and only Bayer Healthcare’s certified field engineers are authorized by the manufacturer to perform these services. Bayer Healthcare would offer the best value to the Government in providing the maintenance services required. Documentation is loaded in the Paperless Contract File (PCF). A sources sought was not posted as there are no third-party providers available.

Requirement to post justification in accordance with FAR 8.405-6(b)(3), FAR 13.105(c), or FAR 16.505(a)(4)(iii)(A)

☐ Action is a brand name restriction, under $25K, no posting required.

☐ Action is a brand name restriction, over $25K. It will be redacted and posted with the solicitation.

7. Market Research: Market research revealed the recommended service maintenance is not available on the Government Services Administration (GSA) under the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS). A search for “CT injectors” showed nothing in GSA. A search on the new SBA website at https://search.certifications.sba.gov/ with the NAICS code 811210 and the keyword “injector maintenance” showed fifteen (15) small businesses (SB). A search with only NAICS 811210 returned the same fifteen (15) small businesses. Seven (7) of these had no valid SBA Certifications. The capabilities narratives were reviewed outlining mostly IT repair, electrical and construction. None of the reviews outlined CT or tomography device repair. The market research results reveal there is not two or more small businesses that can fill this requirement.

This is not a new requirement. Market research showed it is not available on GSA and not available on SBA. After conducting the market research, the contracting officer determined the recommended source will be used in accordance with FAR § 13.106-1(b)(1), for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), only one source reasonably available, urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand name, or industrial mobilization.
