Sole Source Letter from Vendor.pdf

This is a Sole Source Manufacturer and Distributor Letter from The Bergmann Group, doing business as Phoenix LTC, supporting a sole source procurement by the Idaho Department of Administration, Division of Purchasing, on behalf of the Idaho Division of Veterans Services. The letter confirms that The Bergmann Group is the sole manufacturer and exclusive distributor of the StatSafe Automated Medication Management System, including all associated cabinets, software, and related components. The procurement notice was posted on March 17, 2026, with a closing date of March 20, 2026. Any interested vendor may challenge this sole source determination by submitting a written challenge to purchasing@adm.idaho.gov within five business days after the closing date in accordance with Idaho Code section 67-9232(4). The procurement is conducted under Idaho Code section 67-9221, which permits sole source purchases when only one vendor is deemed qualified to provide the specified property or service.

The letter establishes that StatSafe systems are proprietary products available exclusively from The Bergmann Group / Phoenix LTC, with no other company or distributor authorized to manufacture, sell, or supply the StatSafe system or its associated components. No award value, budget range, incumbent vendor information, or technology integration requirements are specified in the available documentation. No set-asides are applicable to this procurement, as the sole source determination restricts qualification to The Bergmann Group dba Phoenix LTC unless a successful protest challenge is filed during the designated five-business-day period following the March 20, 2026 closing date.
