6515--NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE Custom Neuro Surgery Tray Sets and Associated Instruments

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Networking Contracting Office (NCO 5), located in Martinsburg, WV, intends to enter into a sole source procurement, pursuant to the authority of FAR 6.302-1, with CareFusion 2200 Inc., for the following requirement: Statement of Need for the Neurological Sets and Associated Special Instruments General Background The mission of the Hershel Woody Williams VAMC is to provide whole health care for Veterans of military service. The mission of the Surgery Department is to provide safe, efficient, high quality surgical care. This acquisition is required to resume Neurosurgical procedures, specifically procedures that treat conditions of the spine. This acquisition includes multiple instrument trays specific to the spinal structures/anatomy. Neurosurgery providers have been on contract for the past 12 months and have identified patients who are surgical candidates while waiting for approval of the Clinical Restructuring Request (CRR). In follow-up to

the approval of the CRR, the requested instrument trays are now necessary to resume procedures.  Objective Through reinstatement of the Neuro/Spine Program at HWW VA Medical Center, the facility will be able to increase access to care and reduce community care referrals. The facility does not currently own the required specialty instrumentation. Therefore, the requested trays are necessary to perform spine procedures and to achieve the stated objective. 1.3 Statement of Need The contractor must furnish the following sets, as well as required non-file instruments at the Government s location.
