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: Provide original manufacturer's name for material or contractor's name for service. (If a sole source manufacturer distributes via dealers, ALSO provide dealer information.) Manufacturer/Contractor: Philips Healthcare Manufacturer/Contractor POC & phone number: Bashar Sayed (419) 708-5942 Mfgr/Contractor Address: 22100 Bothell Everett Highway, MS 665 Bothell, WA 98041 Dealer/Rep address/phone number: Bashar Sayed, (419) 708-5942 X The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the Government. (1) AGENCY AND CONTRACTING ACTIVITY:Department of Veterans Affairs John D. Dingell VA Medical Center Detroit, MI 48201___________ VISN:11 (2) NATURE AND/OR DESCRIPTION OF ACTION BEING APPROVED: This is a request for a task order contract against FSS contract V797P-6011B for service and maintenance of Philips medical equipment. (3)(a)A DESCRIPTION OF THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED TO MEET THE AGENCY'S NEED: Brightview (41832035); Jetstream (41832037); Jetstream (43443520); Brightview (43135719); Sunblade (518832); Sunblade (518824); Sunblade (518825); BV Pulsera (549260); BV Pulsera (553274); Brilliance CT 64 (41986854); EBW (41986856); and Panorama HFO (58962221). (b)ESTIMATED DOLLAR VALUE: $378,840.00 (c)REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE: 10/01/2015 (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. (CHECK ALL THAT APPLY AND COMPLETE) XSpecific 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. The Philips medical equipment referenced above is proprietary to Philips. Only Philips Healthcare can perform the required maintenance and repairs to this equipment. XA patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is: (If FAR 8.405-6(a)(2)iii before posting. Do not include specific proprietary data. Only mention the type of equipment, procedure, etc. to show that proprietary supplies or services are being procured.) Existing equipment is Philips brand, which requires the Philips company to service and maintain per VA and FSS contract V797P-6011B. XThese are "direct replacements" parts/components for existing equipment. _We may require a direct replacement part which will be covered under this new task order contract. ___________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ 0The 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. XThe 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. This is a follow up contract to V797P-6011B. 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 price is considered fair and reasonable based on established FSS pricing. The service contract costs for this equipment have been negotiated and a FSS contract has been established for this work. The FSS contract number is V797P-6011B. This represents the best value, because the equipment is proprietary to Philips and only Philips Healthcare can perform the required maintenance and repairs to the equipment. (6) DESCRIBE THE MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AMONG SCHEDULE HOLDERS AND THE RESULTS OR A STATEMENT OF THE REASON MARKET RESEARCH WAS NOT CONDUCTED: The COR, Alessandra Dal Cengio Leonardi, searched GSA Advantage for the applicable FSS contract. She contacted the vendor and received the appropriate quote. (7) ANY OTHER FACTS SUPPORTING THE JUSTIFICATION: This equipment is required to safely utilize high-tech medical equipment on VA patients. (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: In the future, we will complete the requirement for new equipment and the resulting service contracts will reflect this order. We will also perform additional market research at the end of the fiscal year to see if there are any updates to the FSS contract. (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.
