The Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically the VISN 1 Boston Healthcare System for the West Roxbury and Jamaica Plain Medical Centers, has entered into a sole source procurement for Waste Anesthetic Gas (WAG) disposal canisters. This acquisition, identified by Action ID 36C241 23 AP 4224 and NAICS code 339113, is valued at approximately 20,500 dollars. The procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1(c) to acquire Deltasorb canisters manufactured by Blue Zone Technologies, Ltd. and distributed through Focus Healthcare Products, LLC. These specific canisters were selected due to a unique and patented distillation process that achieves 100 percent WAG adsorption, preventing harmful gases from entering the environment through medical facility ventilation systems. A key operational advantage is that the canisters are installed in line with anesthesia gas machine exhausts without requiring retrofitting or professional engineering, allowing for installation by medical technicians. Market research and a successful trial confirmed the functionality and ease of installation, leading to the award issued on September 22, 2023.

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Veterans Health Administration Justification for Brand Name/Single Source Award IAW FAR 6.302-1(c) Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C241 23 AP 4224 Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs; VISN 1; Boston Healthcare System, West Roxbury and Jamaica Plain Medical Centers; 523 23 3 7906 0054 Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: Waste Anesthetic Gas (WAG) disposal canisters needed to minimize the negative effects on the environment from the WAG released during surgeries, which is exhausted through the medical facility ventilation system. The estimated value is $20,500.00. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: Deltasorb canisters, manufactured by Blue Zone Technologies, Ltd., solely distributed through Focus Healthcare Products, LLC, are made for use with a unique and patented distillation process effective at 100% WAG adsorption before it enters the environment. The result produces a pure, branded generic, inhalation anesthetic. Additionally, the canisters are installed in line with the anesthesia gas machine exhaust, without the need for retrofitting. This type of installation can be performed by medical technicians without an Engineer required. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: While other companies utilize other approaches, none are currently being used by other VHA medical facilities where information could be obtained about their effectiveness. As a result, a trial of the Deltasorb canister was conducted, which confirmed the functionality as marketed and the ease of installation. Based on these findings, a sole source procurement of Deltasorb canisters from Focus Healthcare Products, LLC, will best meet the requirement. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR 6.302 1(c). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. Gail Grundy 9/19/2023 Name Date Contracting Officer 136607 Gail A.
