The statutory authority for applying the Simplified Procedures for Commercial Items of FAR 13.5 is 41 U.S.C. § 1901 and is implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b)(2) for restricting competition on this procurement. Competition is restricted on this procurement for the reason below: ( ) Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements ( X ) Unusual and Compelling Urgency ( ) Industrial Mobilization, Engineering, Developmental or Research Capability or Expert Services ( ) International Agreement ( ) Authorized or Required by Statute ( ) National Security ( ) Public Interest Demonstration that the Contractor s Unique Qualifications or Nature of the Acquisition Requires the Use of the Authority Cited Above (applicability of authority): In order to maintain standards of patient care, a sole-source award to Invacare would be in the best interest of the VA. To delay the award to meet competition requirements would be detrimental to patient health. The durable medical equipment is kept in stock in order to accommodate the health and mobility needs of the veterans upon discharge form the hospital. Without this equipment, the impact to the physical and mental health of the veteran would be deeply impacted. Description of Efforts Made to ensure that offers are solicited from as many potential sources as deemed practicable: Sources Sought Synopsis: A Sources Sought on ebuy RFQ1547038 was issued on 3/21/22, to identify any contract vendors that offered Brand name or equal product descriptions- received 5 interested responses(SDVOSB) Pisces Healthcare Solutions, (SB)Aracent Healthcare, (SB)GF Health Products, (SDVOSB)Trition Light Medical, (SDVOSB) D.V Jahn Inc all either responded to provide Brand products and Brand Name or Equal products. However, the manufacturer, Invacare is a large business. There is no waiver under NAICS 339113. The need for this product is urgent. Soliciting the product would have negative impact on patient health. The proposed action will be a sole-source to Invacare. Determination by the CO that the Anticipated Cost to the Government will be Fair and Reasonable: The anticipated cost will be considered fair and reasonable based on the pricing history and review of publically posted pricing, previous FPDS awards, GSA catelog prices, and previous IFCAP price history.
