    P03 Single Source Justification CO Signed 1_Redacted.pdf
    The document outlines a justification for a single source award by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for leasing a mobile Canon Aquilion CT system, needed while their current unit undergoes upgrades. The intended lease value falls between the micro-purchase threshold and the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) of $250,000. The justification emphasizes the unique requirement of the existing Canon system, stating that other brands are incompatible with the current Windows 10 operating system and would necessitate additional training, making them impractical for the short lease duration. Extensive market research was conducted, yielding no other viable options that satisfy the required specifications. Only one authorized partner, SDVOSB Redhawk, was identified through a market survey sent to original equipment manufacturer Canon, with a Letter of Authorization on file. The contracting officer, Ashley Kenyon, certifies that the justification provided is accurate and complete, aligning with FAR regulations. This document indicates the VA’s intent to efficiently address urgent medical equipment needs while adhering to federal acquisition regulations.
