The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 10, intends to negotiate a sole source, firm-fixed price contract for the procurement of 52 Medtronic 980 Rechargeable LI-ION Batteries for the Cincinnati VA Medical Center. This requirement is being processed under Simplified Acquisition Procedures using the authority of FAR 12.102(a) and GSAR 538.7104-3, as the government has determined that Covidien Sales LLC (Medtronic) is the only responsible source capable of providing batteries that integrate with the existing Medtronic PB980 Ventilator systems. The procurement is necessary because current life support equipment is reaching the end of its battery service life, and OEM equipment is required to ensure consistency, compatibility, and interchangeability. The identified vendor, Covidien Sales LLC, is a large business and the original equipment manufacturer. This action is categorized under NAICS code 335910 for Battery Manufacturers.
