- Description
- VHAPM Part 813.106 Simplified Acquisition Procedures: Soliciting from a Single Source Attachment 1: Single Source Justification for SAP under the SAT VHAPM Part 813.106 Page 1 of 1 Original Date: 08/30/17 Revision 02 Eff Date: 03/31/2020 DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K) Acquisition Plan Action ID:___ VA-20-00048902___________________ Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 05 Department of Veterans Affairs/Veterans Health Administration Network Contracting Office 5 512-20-3-874-0092 Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: VISN 5 requires bio-decontamination systems for each facility. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic the need to rapidly bio-decontaminate equipment and facilities has increased. Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor (HPV) technology has proven to kill over 98% of pathogens. 6 units 6 cases of consumables Estimated total price - $237,100.00 Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: Bioquell has a proprietary hydrogen peroxide vapor technology and some of the unique characteristics about their equipment are: single decontamination of every exposed surface without having to reposition the equipment no residue left for staff to clean up verification by the system to indicate which pathogens have been killed (6-log reduction) elimination of pathogens not just a reduction Portable Decontamination of equipment and facilities Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: There are other companies that have disinfection services where you either send PPE/materials out to them for disinfection/decontamination (e.g. Battelle) or services where the company comes into the facility to clean (e.g. Xenex Disinfection Services). We have not found another other company that offers bio-decontamination equipment that is portable, can decontaminate equipment and facilities and uses Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor. Disinfecting using hydrogen peroxide is the only approved method for N95 masks at this time. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. ____________________________ 4/10/2020 Vanessa Jacobs Date
