Description

VA256-17-N-1198 SPECIAL NOTICE NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE Immuno Concepts Reagents The Department of Veterans Affairs, Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care System (SLVHCS), 2400 Canal Street, New Orleans, LA 70119, intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The VA intends to solicit and negotiate with Global Focus Marketing & Distribution. The reagents are required to perform ANA testing on the AFT3000 and Image Navigator instruments. The reagents and supplies are the proprietary property of Immuno Concepts and their Sole distributor is Global Focus. Global Focus is the only source that can provide the specific reagents and supplies for the AFT3000 and Image Navigator instruments currently in use by the Microbiology Laboratory at SLVHS. The reagents are specific to the equipment used and alternate vendors cannot provide acceptable reagent systems. The vendor is based on the availability of the reagents that meet the specific parameters of the equipment (chemical & antibody make-up, configuration, size, shape, etc.). This ensures that the highest standard of accuracy and validation is maintained, as required by the Collage of American Pathologists (CAP) and The Joint Commission (TJC). This presents a compelling need to continue this procurement with the current vendor. The Government believes that only one business can satisfy the agency requirements and intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Other vendors may identify their interest and capability by responding to this by Wednesday, August 9, 2017 at 2PM CST. Such capabilities information will be used solely to determine whether to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis.  All information shall be furnished at no cost or obligation to the Government.   A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. No solicitation is available at this time.   All inquiries must be submitted by email to Kimberly Schneider at kimberly.schneider@va.gov.
