Market research indicated the potential availability of Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) for this purchase, prompting the decision to solicit bids as a Brand Name Only requirement set aside for SDVOSB. The contracting officer certifies the justification aligns with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), reflecting a thorough and necessary procurement process tailored to meet the specific operational needs of the VA medical centers while supporting veteran-owned businesses.
