    This document outlines a Brand-Name Justification by the Department of Veterans Affairs for the acquisition of a STERIS InnoWave Unity Sonic Irrigator as part of a simplified acquisition procedure under the micro-purchase threshold, not exceeding $250,000. The justification highlights the need for upgrading the existing outdated InnoWave Ultra at the Jamaica Plain VA Medical Center, which is integral to the centralized sterilization and servicing processes utilized throughout the Boston Healthcare System. The sole source for this upgraded equipment is STERIS, given its proprietary nature and the existing compatibility with the current Steris washer system requiring no additional infrastructure costs. Market research confirmed STERIS as the exclusive provider, with no alternatives viable due to the existing integration and standardization across facilities. This action supports effective operations in medical equipment sterilization while maintaining cost-efficiency in servicing and operations within the VA health system.
