REDACTED LSJ BECKMAN COULTER DXU CPRR URINE CHEMISTRY ANALYER AND REAGENTS.pdf

This Limited Source Justification Document for a Cost-Per-Reportable Result (CPRR) contract involves the Tripler Army Medical Center (TAMC) in Hawaii requesting a new firm-fixed price contract with Beckman Coulter for the DxU 840 Workcell Urinalysis System. The contract will include the equipment, services, and consumables necessary to operate and maintain the urinalysis system, with Defense Health Program fiscal year 2026 funds.

The procurement is a sole-source action justified by Beckman Coulter being the only authorized vendor for this specific equipment. The DxU 840 system offers unique capabilities, including automated particulate recognition that can classify 12 particle categories and sub-classify 27 particles, with features like onboard validation, reduced manual review time, and strip calibration elimination. A sources sought notice was posted on SAM.gov on 5 June 2025, with three potential vendors evaluated, but only Beckman Coulter met the government's requirements. The contract is protected by over forty patents, and ongoing market research will continue to determine if alternative sources become available.
