    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is justifying a single-source award for the procurement of BE9CS-D Microconvex Bi-Plane Ultrasound Probes, needed for use in the Urology Departments at the Malcolm Randall VA Medical Center and Jacksonville 1 VA Outpatient Clinic. The procurement, estimated at a value not exceeding $250,000, is necessary to ensure compatibility with existing GE Logiq ultrasound systems, which are already in use at these facilities. The proposed ultrasound probes are uniquely compatible, making it impractical and costly to replace the existing equipment. 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.
