The Chalmers P. Wylie VA is in need of additional biplane endocavity transducer, transrectal and transvaginal instrumentation, stainless steel reprocessing trays and sensor clamps to complete multiple prostate, evaluations, and biopsy procedures in a day. These items are used in conjunction with the bk3000 ultrasound machine already in use in our Operating Rooms (OR). With multiple Surgeons utilizing the biplane transducer the need for increased equipment is necessary due to Sterile Processing Services (SPS) reprocessing procedures from patient to patient is over 24hr.

Enter RFQ 36C25024Q1019: Biplane Endocavity Transducer in the email subject line. SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS E14CL4b Endocavity Biplane Transrectal & Transvaginal Transducer is a high-resolution biplane transducer ideal for precise volume studies and guiding prostate therapy. The transducer is designed for simultaneous biplane imaging of the prostate. E14CL4b is suitable for transrectal imaging, transvaginal imaging, guidance of all transperineally interventional procedures. The surgeon can perform quick, reliable puncture and biopsy procedures with a single-use needle guide. Expanded sector gives a wider field of view. By increasing the transverse sector angle from a default width of 140° to 180° and increase the default sagittal view of 65mm to a trapezoidal view, which provides an additional 15°on each side. The E14CL4b Endocavity Biplane Transducer features include, activation of the transducer and freeze, store, and print images with one press of the integrated Smart Button. An ergonomic design improves operator comfort. Advanced transducer connector designed for noise reduction in the ultrasound image and one-handed operation. Correct reprocessing is fundamental in guarding against infection. To make liquid-based reprocessing more convenient, endocavity biplane transducers come with a special watertight plug lid to allow the entire transducer (including the cable and plug) to be fully submerged. The stainless-steel reprocessing tray is designed to be durable but protect the device from damage through reprocessing and storage of the E14CL4b Biplane Endocavity Transducer. EM Sensor Clamp for E14CL4b attaches via the sensor clamp to the transducer. The transducer transmits ultrasound data to the system. The position of the sensor is detected by the EM transmitter. The sensor clamp is connected to the sensor of the EM control unit: Insert the sensor cable into socket, until an audible click is heard. Push the sensor into the sensor clamp channel. The small indentation on the tip of the sensor must be facing the groove in the sensor clamp channel. Slide the other sensor clamp channel over the steel stud on the side of the transducer until an audible click is heard. The numbered and colored scale under the ultrasound image on the system monitor represents the sensor s proximity to the EM transmitter. A number in green (0 or 1) represents the optimal proximity. 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: 36C250-24-AP-4752 Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 10, located at 3140 Governor s Place Boulevard Suite 210, Kettering OH 45409-1337, in support of VISN 10 VA Health Care System at 420 North James Road, Columbus, OH 43219-1834, using Transaction #: 757-24-3-096-0542. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: The Chalmers P. Wylie VA is in need of additional biplane endocavity transducer, transrectal and transvaginal instrumentation, stainless steel reprocessing trays and sensor clamps to complete multiple prostate, evaluations, and biopsy procedures in a day. These items are used in conjunction with the bk3000 ultrasound machine already in use in our Operating Rooms (OR). With multiple surgeons utilizing the biplane transducer the need for increased equipment is necessary due to Sterile Processing Services (SPS) reprocessing procedures from patient to patient is over 24hr.

Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: We have previously ordered and purchased this equipment. The items requesting are in addition to our current stocked items. The equipment is made to be used in conjunction with bk3000 ultrasound machine also already in use within our surgical suites. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Per End User: No market research conducted due to the equipment is currently being utilized in our surgical suites. The new equipment is an addition to our current items. All the equipment is produced to be used with the bk3000 ultrasound that is in place. Per Contracting: The following market research techniques were used but are not limited to: VetCert, DSBS, GSA and Internet. The VetCert search using NAICS 339112 netted 669 SD/VOSBs. The DSBS search using the same NAICS netted 3868 Vendors; added keyword separately: Biplane netted 0 Vendors. GSA Advantage and Supply Chain Master Catalogue (SCMC) netted 0 Vendors. 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. ___________________________ Gina P. Crank Contracting Officer Network Contracting Office 10
