FCI Pekin 2600 S. 2nd
St.
Pekin, IL 61554
Nature and/or Description of Action Being Taken: FCI Pekin intends to make an award to a sole source provider, Scriptpro USA Inc, for the requirement of an operating lease for the Scriptpro 150 CRS equipment and software installed the FCI Pekin Pharmacy.

Efforts made to solicit from as many potential sources as practicable, including whether a notice was or will be publicized:
Scriptpro USA Inc.is the only vendor that can be used because they are the manufacturer of the Scriptpro 150 CRS, and have proprietary control of the equipment and software.
