    The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking to procure brand name Eyecon M9420 pill counting and inventory system along with Barcode Scanners for the Bath and Canandaigua VA Medical Center campuses. This procurement, estimated at $25,224.96, aims to enhance pharmacy operations by reducing human errors and improving medication management through accurate drug verification and inventory tracking. The justification for a single source award under FAR 13.106-1 highlights the unique characteristics of the Eyecon system and the compatibility with existing ScriptPro pharmacy systems, asserting that no other alternatives meet the required specifications. Market research conducted revealed a lack of viable suppliers, with databases yielding either no results or only one potential vendor—ScriptPro. Additionally, a sources sought notice resulted in two responses, but none offered sufficient capability under the VA's Rule of Two for veteran-owned or service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. Consequently, the Contracting Officer concluded that a set aside for these types of providers was not feasible, thereby supporting the decision for a single source purchase. Certification by the Contracting Officer affirms the accuracy of this justification, essential for compliance with federal procurement regulations.
