DESCRIPTION: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD AS A SOLE-SOURCE to a SAC Contract VA119-16-A-0068, for the purchase of obtaining a specialized motor drive for catheters and catheters. The Department of Veterans Affairs Contracting Office 2 (NCO 2) intends to award on a sole source basis with Boston Scientific Corporation (DUNS: 021717889), pursuant to FAR Subpart 13.5 and FAR 13.106-1(b)(2). The proposed SAC Contract holder, who has previous history of emergency contract performance, is now able to also provide emergency contract performance on specific items needed for Manhattan VA Medical Center for Emergency Surgeries. Market research was conducted and determined that Boston Scientific Corporation is the only vendor who is able to provide exact items needed, as they are proprietary and the motor unit is needed to operate the newer model of catheters.
