Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:
The Navigator 2.0 Control unit, and mapping probe system is used in radio-guided surgical procedures, primarily for tumor localization. Radio-guided surgical techniques using radiopharmaceuticals to locate several different tumor sites have been effective in the localization of other diseases, such as parathyroid adenomas, lymphatic breast cancer and recurrent cancer. All Stainless-steel probes, designed for sterilization, with the choice of wireless or cabled probes. The sterilization trays allow the Navigator Gamma Probes to be sterilized following preparation and cleaning indications. Dilon Technologies, Inc. is the only manufacturer and sole provider of the Navigator 2.0 surgical gamma probe system and its related accessories.
Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:
Dilon Technologies, Inc. is the only manufacturer and sole provider of the Navigator 2.0 surgical gamma probe system and its related accessories. There are no certified resellers of the Navigator product line. Any other entity promoting and/or providing the Navigator system in the state of Ohio is not approved by Dilon Technologies, Inc.
Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:
VIP search using NAICS resulted 405 SD/VOSBs adding key words resulted 46 SD/VOSBs, however the OEM states there are no Authorized Distributors for this area. The VA Rule of two is Unattainable. Searched the NAC, GSA and the Internet which resulted Minogue Medical stating they are the only authorized distributor however as mentioned the OEM, Dilon, says there are no authorized distributors in this area. This requirement will be posted on SAM/Contract Opportunities as a Sole Source to the OEM.
Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
