J065--Skytron Lights and Booms Maintenance at William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through the 252-NETWORK Contract Office 12 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has awarded a sole source firm-fixed price contract to Alliance Medical Corporation for preventive and corrective maintenance of Skytron 300 Series Booms, 200/100 Series Booms, Surgical Lights, and Procedure Lights at the William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital. This acquisition is justified under 41 U.S.C. § 1901 and FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i), as Alliance Medical Corporation is the exclusive authorized service provider for Skytron equipment, with no other responsible sources capable of performing the required maintenance due to proprietary system restrictions. The contract covers a base year from June 1, 2026, through May 31, 2027, with four additional one-year option periods extending through May 31, 2031, for a total potential value of $439,360, with each year priced at $87,872. All work must be performed on-site at the hospital in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and must strictly adhere to Skytron, Inc.’s OEM specifications under the “Assure” service agreement, ensuring equipment integrity and patient safety. The contracting officer, Joni Dorr, retains final authority for acceptance, and the contractor must provide documented OEM authorization from Skytron, Inc., as required by VAAR Clause 852.212-71(c). Market research confirmed no viable alternatives existed, and despite a public notice issued in March 2026, no other firms responded. No competitive evaluation factors, adjectival ratings, or risk assessments were applied, as this was a non-competitive, sole source acquisition. Packaging, marking, invoicing procedures, accounting codes, and security requirements are not specified, and no contracting officer’s representative or technical representative is formally named, though oversight remains with the contracting office. The contract relies entirely on OEM authorization and compliance with proprietary performance standards rather than external military or industry standards.
