Quick Summary
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has issued an Award Notice for an out-of-scope modification to an existing Firm-Fixed-Price task order with Four Points Technology, LLC. This modification increases the quantity of Medicor Imaging Picture and Archival Communication System (MIPACS) item MP-HW-SQL-1 by six units. The action is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set-Aside and was justified as a sole source due to Four Points Technology, LLC being the only authorized SDVOSB reseller capable of integrating MIPACS with the VA's new Cerner EHR across VISN 21.
Scope of Modification
This modification specifically increases the quantity of CLIN 0027, which corresponds to six additional units of the MIPACS MP-HW-SQL-1 hardware item. This is an out-of-scope change to the original task order.
Original Contract Context
The original Firm-Fixed-Price task order, awarded on April 16, 2026, was for VISN 21 MIPACS EHRM Readiness. This included MIPACS licensing, implementation, system upgrades, training, and two years of support and maintenance, with a focus on integrating the solution with the new Cerner EHR for all VISN 21 locations.
Justification for Sole Source
The modification was justified as a sole source action because Four Points Technology, LLC is identified as the only authorized SDVOSB reseller of MIPACS capable of meeting the VA's requirements for integration with the Cerner EHR across all VISN 21 locations. Market research indicated no other sources could provide the required supplies or services at the necessary quality level, making a switch to an alternative solution uneconomical and inefficient. The contract action exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold but not $900,000.
