    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Network Contracting Office 10 intends to award a Sole Source contract for 3Mensio Cardiac Imaging Software to Esaote North America, Inc. The procurement aims to acquire specific software subscription modules and floating licenses necessary for the Richard L. Roudebush Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Indianapolis, IN. This action follows Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) guidelines and is designated as a non-competitive procurement under FAR Part 6.302-1, citing that only one source can fulfill the agency’s requirements. Interested entities may submit a letter of interest to the contracting specialist, Barbara Robertson, by March 3, 2025, although the government reserves the right to proceed with the sole source award without competition. Furthermore, the contractor must be an authorized reseller of Pie Medical Imaging equipment to satisfy warranty and service obligations. The notice underscores the VA’s expectation for compliance with accessibility standards and guidelines for all offered solutions. This acquisition reflects the VA's commitment to enhancing medical imaging capabilities for veterans' care facilities.
    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is seeking a single-source contract for the renewal of software licenses for 3mensio workstations, essential for cardiac pre-operative planning at the Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center. The renewal includes various modules crucial for transcatheter procedures, set to expire on February 28, 2025. 3mensio software is uniquely suited for this task, providing reliable, standardized measurements that align with major medical device vendors and facilitating accurate decision-making during procedures. Market research indicated that no alternative software meets these specific needs, as 3mensio is the only software compatible with the existing systems and widely recognized in the field. Therefore, the VA plans to sole-source this contract from the authorized distributor, reaffirming its commitment to delivering optimal patient care and outcomes using the industry's standard software.
