    JAunderSAT 250K and Below Robotic Arm Vial Conversion RAHC Redacted.pdf
    The document outlines a justification for a sole-source procurement of a robotic arm replacement for the Collating Control Center (CCC) at RAHC pharmacies for fiscal year 2025. It cites the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) authority of 13.106-1(b)(1) due to the specificity of the equipment, which is proprietary to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), ScriptPro. The justification emphasizes that no small businesses can fulfill this requirement, and contracting with another vendor would invalidate warranties and potentially jeopardize pharmacy operations. The requirement is under the simplified acquisition threshold of $250K, eliminating the need for public posting of justification. The document concludes with certifications from the supply technician and the contracting officer, ensuring that the procurement is in the government's best interest based on fair price comparisons to historical data. The summary underscores the necessity for urgent action by approving a sole-source contract to maintain operational integrity at the pharmacy.
