This requirement is intended to be sole-sourced to Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. due to their exclusive ability to provide OEM parts and trained personnel, ensuring the equipment remains fully functional and compliant with manufacturer specifications.
Scope of Work
The required services include comprehensive annual maintenance for the Government-owned CA-660 Coagulation Analyzer.

Set-Aside / Eligibility
This requirement is justified for sole-source award to Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. The rationale is that Siemens is the exclusive service provider for the CA-660 Coagulation Analyzer, possessing the unique expertise, trained personnel, and proprietary OEM parts necessary for maintenance. Servicing the equipment outside of OEM procedures would void its usability. Market research indicates no other known companies can provide these specific services.
Submission & Evaluation
While this is a sole-source justification, a presolicitation notice will be posted on SAM.gov to invite capability statements from any responsible sources who believe they can meet the requirement. The government will continue ongoing market research for new entrants.
