About this opportunity
The Department of State Office of Acquisition Management has awarded a sole-source contract to Butterfly Operations, Inc. for ultrasound systems, accessories, memberships, and training support for the United States Military Group Burundi, with a total estimated value of $262,580.
The justification cites FAR 12.102(a) on a brand-name basis. The Contracting Officer determined that Butterfly Operations' proprietary Ultrasound-on-Chip technology—which enables a single ruggedized probe to emulate 20+ clinical applications—has no commercial alternative without causing substantial duplication of costs, unresolvable capability gaps, and mission failure. The requirement is driven by infrastructure-independent portability compatible with standard Type-C charging, closed ecosystem integration with mandatory Global Health subscriptions, and deeply integrated vendor-proprietary training curriculum.
The contract covers 50 Butterfly iQ3 Ultrasound Systems and 50 Butterfly iQ3 Charger Kits (Type C) for delivery to USMILGP Burundi Office. The delivery package includes Individual Global Health Memberships for each device, a six-week Train-the-Trainer program by the Global Ultrasound Institute for 30 learners covering obstetric point-of-care ultrasound fundamentals with in-person didactic instruction in Bujumbura, clinical examination and competency certification, and twelve months of access to the GUSI OB Essentials online learning platform. Each system includes a three-year manufacturer's warranty and cloud-based software with AI-guided diagnostic overlays, secure local storage, and remote consultation. Contract 19GE5026P0143 was awarded on September 29, 2026.
