This is a Limited-Sources Justification (LSJ) for a sole-source acquisition of Animatronic Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) manikins for the U.S. Navy.

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Medical Supply Chain, Hospital Supply Division is procuring eight Clinical Response Upper Resuscitate (CRU-R) patient simulators (part number FG-CRU-R-0002) and eight Hemo Lower Body patient simulators (part number FG-HEMO-0004), plus accessories from TACMED SOLUTIONS. The acquisition supports advanced medical training at the Coronado, California Naval facility and can be placed against ECAT Solicitation SPE2DH-21-R-0002, Contract Number SPE2DH-24-D-0007 (valid through March 14, 2029). The total estimated dollar value is redacted. The justification cites FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B) authority, establishing that only TACMED SOLUTIONS can supply manikins meeting the Government's specialized requirements for 13 specific clinical simulation features, including advanced cardiovascular life support simulation, airway management, cricothyroidotomy simulation, chest tube training, needle decompression, intraosseous access, penetrating chest wounds, inguinal wounds, intubation with error detection, gunshot wounds with bleeding control, amputation with tourniquet feedback, leg splinting, and animatronic patient movement with high-torque servo motors. The document confirms that TACMED SOLUTIONS' manikin is the only product currently available on ECAT or in the commercial market meeting all minimum clinical and technical requirements. The Contracting Officer determined prices fair and reasonable under the Equipment ECAT multiple award program and representing best value to the Government. Market research conducted through January 2026 confirmed no alternative sources, though DLA commits to continued monitoring for competing products and encourages other vendors to participate in the Equipment ECAT Program for future acquisitions.
