Description
Revision: 01 Effective Date: 11/15/2024 Acquisition ID#36C252-27-AP-0957 Page 1 of 2 Please note that this is not a request for proposal nor a request for quote as there is no solicitation document available. Therefore, this is a notice of intent issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs to negotiate a limited source contract with Iramed Corporation. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Justification for Single Source Awards RFO FAR 12.102 For Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K) Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C252-27-AP-0957 Contracting Activity US Department of Veterans Affairs Great Lakes Acquisition Center (GLAC) VISN 12 115 S. 84th Street Milwaukee, WI 53214 2237: 556-27-1-2993-0011 Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: The Captain James A. Lovell Federal Healthcare Center (FHCC), Building 556, Nursing Services, is requesting the acquisition of one MRI-compatible IV infusion pump system for the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
MRI-compatible infusion pumps are medically necessary for ICU patients who require continuous vasoactive or sedative titratable infusions while undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to support the diagnosis and evaluation of complex disease processes. Estimated Amount: $105,270.20 Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The availability of this equipment will enable FHCC to perform medically necessary MRI examinations on-site, reducing the need to transfer patients to outside facilities.
Currently, these patients are often taken for CT scans; however, CT imaging may not provide the comprehensive diagnostic information required for certain conditions Standardization and compatibility with the MRI IV infusion equipment currently installed at the facility are essential requirements for this acquisition. The requested system is intended to integrate with the existing equipment and support established clinical workflows, training, maintenance, and operational procedures.
Substituting products from another manufacturer could result in incompatibility, require additional accessories or system modifications, necessitate staff retraining, and increase costs to the facility. Therefore, procurement of the compatible MRI IV Infusion Pump System is justified to maintain system continuity, operational efficiency, and patient-care capabilities. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Market Research Findings: An SBA.gov search under NAICS code 339112 identified zero (5) SDVOSBs and (13) VOSBs.
Two additional searches were conducted on sba.gov by combining NAICS code 339112 with the keywords Quad Non-Magnetic IV Pump System and Non-Magnetic IV Pump System and applying specific filters for SDVOSBs and VOSBs. Both searches yielded zero (0) results. A search on GSA Advantage using the keywords Non-Magnetic IV Pump System produced several results that does not appear to meet the requirement.
The Contracting Officer (CO) searched Google.com using the keywords Non-Magnetic IV Pump System and identified several vendors, including BD, BioSpace, Hospital & Healthcare management, Iradimed, InMed, MDPI, and Ivenix. Although several alternative vendors were identified, their products are not compatible with the MRI IV infusion equipment currently installed at the facility. Standardization and compatibility are essential requirements for this acquisition.
The requested system is designed to integrate with the existing equipment and support established clinical workflows, training, maintenance, and operational procedures. Substituting products from another manufacturer could lead to compatibility issues, require additional accessories or system modifications, necessitate staff retraining, and increase facility costs. Therefore, procuring the compatible MRI IV infusion pump system is justified to ensure system continuity, operational efficiency, and uninterrupted patient-care capabilities.
CO received a letter of authorization from the vendor that certifies Iradimed Corporation is the sole manufacturer and authorized seller of the MRidium 3870 MRI Infusion System and its accessories. Due to proprietary considerations, Iradimed Corporation is also the exclusive source for replacement parts for the MRidium MRI Infusion Pump System. The MRidium 3870 MRI Infusion System is the only nonmagnetic, MRI-compatible IV infusion pump currently available on the market.
Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with RFO FAR 12.102. I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. Vernise L. Newton Contracting Officer
