VHAPM Part 813.106 Simplified Acquisition Procedures: Soliciting from a Single Source Attachment 1: Single Source Justification for SAP under the SAT

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For

Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K)

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C260-21-AP-0653

Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, RPO West, NCO 20 on behalf of Seattle VA Medical Center. 2237: 663-21-1-9961-0220.

Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: Purchase of 65 Smith Medical CADD-SOLIS VIP pumps and accessories to replace the recalled CME America pain pumps. The pumps will be sent with Patients for in home care use. The current pumps have been recalled, so the new pumps need to be purchased ASAP. Est Cost: $168,928.35.

Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

All the facility s current pumps must be returned to CME America, due to an FDA Class 1 Recall. Since veteran patients have these pumps at home, replacement pumps are needed ASAP to be able to facilitate the recall. The Smith Medical Pump meets the needs of VA Puget Sound. It is light weight and easy to learn to use for patients who must use the pump at home.

Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Market Research is limited due to the urgent nature of this requirement. Due to the emergent nature of this requirement there is no time to solicit from different vendors. McKesson has the replacement pumps in stock and can ship within 24 hours of order placement.
