6515--Omnicell Server and Anesthesia cabinets for pharmacy

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through VISN 05 and the 245-NETWORK Contract Office 5 in Linthicum, Maryland, has awarded a sole-source contract under FAR 6.302-1(c) for Omnicell remote access licenses, a virtual test server, and a Windows Server 2025 instance to support existing Omnicell Omnicenter medication distribution systems. The acquisition, totaling $562,710.90, is justified solely on the grounds of technical compatibility, as Omnicell, Inc. is the exclusive manufacturer of the proprietary hardware and software infrastructure required for interoperability with current systems. No other vendors can provide equivalent components that integrate seamlessly with the existing Omnicell platform, eliminating the possibility of competitive sourcing. The place of performance is identified as Linthicum, MD, with the awardee located in Mountain View, CA, and the Contracting Officer, Alison Klein, serves as the primary point of contact. No formal evaluation factors, weighting, or competitive analysis were conducted, as the decision was driven entirely by the necessity of maintaining system integrity. The procurement falls under NAICS code 339112 and uses Product Service Code 6515, with no use of Recovery Act funds. While the contract includes no detailed CLIN breakdown, packaging, marking, inspection criteria, or performance timelines, acceptance is implicitly tied to full functional integration with existing Omnicell equipment. Omnicell, Inc. is the sole offeror, identified by UEI L5KFJWTBJDN5, with no socioeconomic certifications or subcontracting plans documented, and no security, key personnel, or OCI requirements specified in the available information.
