About this file
Summary
This is a Justification for Single Source Award document from the Department of Veterans Affairs for a simplified acquisition under FAR 13.106-1. The Network Contracting Office (NCO) 15, located in Leavenworth, Kansas, is procuring Pyxis host conversion services for VISN 15 Facilities under Purchase Request Number 491-26-3-1025-0014 with Acquisition ID 36C255-26-AP-1485. The acquisition is for an amount over the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold.
The contractor is required to provide comprehensive Pyxis host conversion services for IV Prep, MedES, and supply station systems, including professional services such as project management, interface integration, server configuration, and solution design. The scope also encompasses installation services, remote software support for test and production environments, configuration review of Pyxis Logistic, Pyxis IV Prep, Pyxis ES, and BD Pill Packaging Unit systems, as well as remote go-live support. The justification for single-source procurement cites the highly specialized and proprietary nature of the equipment, which can only be supplied and serviced by BD's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and certified field service technicians. The document notes that use of non-authorized vendors would void existing warranties, is unsupported by CareFusion Solutions, LLC, and would render the facility liable for any resulting equipment damage. The Contracting Officer, Betty Flores, certified the justification on April 22, 2026.
