6515--SPECIAL PeriFlux 6000 Monitor

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through Network Contracting Office 23 in Saint Paul, Minnesota, awarded a sole-source contract under the Federal Supply Schedule to Lovell Government Services Inc. for the procurement of two Perimed Periflux 6000 tcpO2 monitoring systems at a total value of $234,323.76. This acquisition was conducted as a brand-name-only purchase under FAR 8.405-6 due to the unique, proprietary nature of the Periflux 6000 system, which features specialized sensors and clinical integration capabilities that cannot be replicated by alternative vendors. The procurement is justified by the lack of equivalent substitutes capable of meeting the established standards for transcutaneous oxygen monitoring in vascular and wound care services, with market research confirming no suitable alternatives exist. The contract is set aside entirely for small businesses, with the awardee certified as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), triggering compliance with the Veterans First Program and related reporting obligations under FAR 19.14. The award date was June 15, 2026, with performance tied to the contractor’s location in Pensacola, Florida, and no explicit delivery or performance deadlines provided. Funding originates from the Federal Supply Schedule with no Recovery Act funds involved, and no CLIN-level breakdowns or detailed pricing structures are disclosed. Contract administration is managed by Contracting Officer John Milroy, with no identified COR or COTR. The only formal attachment is a justification for limiting sources, supporting the sole-source determination under FAR 8.405-6 and FAR 6.303, while no packaging, inspection, or acceptance criteria, payment office specifics, invoicing method, or clause language beyond the justification are detailed in the available documentation.
