The associated NAICS code for these Supplies is 339112. The vendor, LSI Solutions, Inc., 7796 Victor Mendon Road, Victor, NY, 14564-8966. Description of equipment requirements: One (1) Boxes, Titanium Clips, Cor-Knot Kits (MPN): 031350. A firm fixed price contract with no option years is anticipated and shall be awarded. It is the Government's belief that only the proposed candidate possesses the required capabilities to successfully meet this requirement. It is the Government's intention to solicit and negotiate with only this source. This is not a Request for Proposal; this is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source requirement. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($150K) Acquisition Plan Action ID: VA250-18-AP-6274 Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 10, Ann Arbor Healthcare System, Station 506, 2215 Fuller Road, Ann Arbor, MI 48105-2303. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: The estimated amount of this procurement is $4,399.00 which has been certified on Purchase Request No.: 506-18-2-022-2760 to purchase 1 Boxes, Titanium Clip, Cor-Knot Kits (MPN): 031350. These Titanium Clips are used during scheduled surgical procedures. This item will be purchased from LSI Solutions, Inc. 7796 Victor Mendon Road, Victor, NY 14564-8966. The item is required to be delivered on or before March 12, 2018. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The COR-KNOT ® FASTENER provides a strong, secure and safe alternative to hand- tied knots. This item is proprietary to LSI Solutions, Inc. and is the manufacturer and sole distributor of this product. The COR-KNOT ® DEVICE has several key benefits that distinguish it as a leading suture fastening system. CONTROL Exquisite remote suture tensioning Unsurpassed visibility of prosthetic-tissue interface One device simultaneously fastens and trims suture SPEED Faster and easier than hand tying Place fastener and precisely trim suture in seconds May reduce cardiopulmonary bypass time SECURITY Low profile, always strong mechanical fastener Unparalleled automated reliability Excellent hemodynamic and clinical results This item dissolves within the human body and is used during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. Therefore, no 2268 is required for this procurement. In addition, this is an emergent procurement and is required for a scheduled surgical procedure at the facility. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Reviewed FPDS-NG, GSA, MedSurg Online Catalogs, NAC, for vendors with similar items without success. A google search was also conducted only to provide ineffective results. There are currently no SDVOSB or VOSB organizations that are authorized to distribute this proprietary product. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
