Sole Source-MagView for Red Lake Hospital

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The acquisition, titled "MagView Technical Service Support," is a follow-on requirement to replace an existing purchase order (75h705221P00052) for an estimated value of $23,715.00. The proposed contractor is APPLIED SOFTWARE INC. The services involve an industry-standard server migration to the MagView server at the Red Lake Hospital, including testing, application, and interface migration to an updated service. The justification for sole-sourcing is based on FAR 6.302-1, citing that the upgrade is proprietary to the manufacturer and specific software, making the intended contractor the only responsible source. The agency currently uses this Mammography tracking program, which is crucial for MQSA compliance, and an open market competition would necessitate purchasing another interface, which is not considered beneficial to the government. Market research indicates that this service is proprietary to the manufacturer and specific software.
