Other / Unclassified

This document is a "Justification for Single Source Awards IAW RFO 12.102" for the Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 09. It justifies a brand name requirement for Manoscan ESO Z catheters for the Lexington VA Medical Center. The justification is for a procurement over the Micro-Purchase Threshold but not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.

• Requirement: The Lexington VA Medical Center needs to procure Manoscan ESO Z catheters to supplement their existing Manoscan ESO High Resolution Manometry System. They currently have two catheters and require an additional one due to an increase in procedures and the risk of breakage during use or sterilization.
• Estimated Amount: The estimated price for this procurement is $25,407.50.
• Sole Source Rationale: The Manoscan catheters are the only ones compatible with the existing Manoscan system, which was procured in 2019. Purchasing a different brand would incur duplicative costs.
• Market Research: Market research identified at least three (3) small businesses that are authorized distributors of the Manoscan ESO Z Catheter.
