LIMITED SOURCES JUSTIFICATION ORDER >$3,000 FAR PART 8.405-6(g) 2237 Transaction # or Vista Equipment Transaction #: 652-13-3-165-0091 This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Multiple Award Schedule Program. The material or service listed in par. 3 below is sole source, therefore, consideration of the number of contractors required by FAR Subpart 8.4 - Federal Supply Schedules, is precluded for the reasons indicated below. Restricted to the following source: Manufacturer/Contractor: Omnicell, Inc. Manufacturer/Contractor POC & phone number: Wendy Smith (951) 206-8473 Mfgr/Contractor Address: 1201 Charleston Road, Mountain View, CA 94043 Dealer/Rep address/phone number: Same as Above 1 The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the Government. (1) AGENCY AND CONTRACTING ACTIVITY: Department of Veterans Affairs VISN 6 Network Contracting Activity 100 Emancipation Dr Hampton, VA 23367 (2) NATURE AND/OR DESCRIPTION OF ACTION BEING APPROVED: A new FSS order to Omnicell Incorporated. (3)(a)A DESCRIPTION OF THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED TO MEET THE AGENCY'S NEED: The Richmond Medical Center Pharmacy is expanding its existing Automated Pharmaceutical Dispensing and Tracking System to accommodate its increase in patients and expanded services. The system_____ includes 1 Main carousel system and montly monitoring, several Workflow app including 10 user server rack and montly monitoring, Wireless barcode scanners, Label Printer and Cartfill to Workflow. (b)ESTIMATED DOLLAR VALUE: $ $258,741.34 (c)REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE: June 30, 2013 (4)IDENTIFICATION OF THE JUSTIFICATION RATIONALE (SEE FAR 8.405-6), AND IF APPLICABLE, A DEMONSTRATION OF THE PROPOSED CONTRACTOR'S UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS TO PROVIDE THE REQUIRED SUPPLY OR SERVICE. 1Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source (unique features, function of the item, etc.). Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources. Omnicell equipment allows the pharmaceutical database to be accessed over the computer network, providing real time information of the supply status. WorkflowRx automates the ordering, receiving, stocking, and picking processes.This enables pharmacies to increase pharmacy staff efficiency,automate inventory management, and ensure patient safety.This will allow for efficient controlled access points, and supports accountability standards set by the Joint Commission, DEA, and Board of Pharmacy. The Omnicell system is already in use at the Richmond VAMC. Changing to a new pharmaceutical tracking and dispensing system would incur significant duplication of costs. Similar products from other vendors cannot be incorporated into Omnicell's proprietary management system. 0A patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is: 0These are "direct replacements" parts/components for existing equipment. ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ 1The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed/performing. Describe the equipment/function you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system. Due to the proprietary programming and interface required to integrate the dispensing and tracking of drugs, as well as, the liability associated with the system operations, competition is not an option at this time. 0The new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule order provided that the original order was placed in accordance with the applicable Federal Supply Schedule ordering procedures. The original order must not have been previously issued under sole source or limited source procedures. 0An urgent and compelling need exists, and following the ordering procedures would result in unacceptable delays. (5) DESCRIBE WHY YOU BELIEVE THE ORDER REPRESENTS THE BEST VALUE CONSISTENT WITH FAR 8.4 TO AID THE CONTRACTING OFFICER IN MAKING THIS BEST VALUE DETERMINATION: The cost to implement a new system using a different manufacturer would present a substantial duplication of costs. Thus, maintaining the same system represents the best value to the government. (6) DESCRIBE THE MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AMONG SCHEDULE HOLDERS AND THE RESULTS OR A STATEMENT OF THE REASON MARKET RESEARCH WAS NOT CONDUCTED: Market Research was conducted to verify the Omnicell can meet the Medical Center's requirements, has proprietary rights to the equipment and is on FSS contract. (7) ANY OTHER FACTS SUPPORTING THE JUSTIFICATION: All facts supporting the justification have been mentioned above. (8) A STATEMENT OF THE ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE AGENCY MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIERS THAT LED TO THE RESTRICTED CONSIDERATION BEFORE ANY SUBSEQUENT ACQUISITION FOR THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES IS MADE: Under the authorities and actions cited above, there are no further actions to be taken to overcome barriers to restricted consideration without considerable cost to the government. (9) REQUIREMENTS CERTIFICATION: I certify that the requirement outlined in this justification is a Bona Fide Need of the Department of Veterans Affairs and that the supporting data under my cognizance, which are included in the justification, are accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that processing of this limited sources justification restricts consideration of Federal Supply Schedule contractors to fewer than the number required by FAR Subpart 8.4.
