SOLE SOURCE NOTICE
Department of Veteran Affairs (VA)
Network Contracting Office 21 (NCO 21) hereby gives notice of the Government-s intent to negotiate a sole source, Firm‑Fixed‑Priced Purchase Order with only one source, Carefusion Solutions, LLC.
The procurement is for the VA Central California Health Care System (VACCHCS), Fresno VA Medical Center, which is requesting to procure BD CATO Subscription & IV Prep Support.

It is the Government-s belief that the proposed contractor is the only provider capable of supplying this brand with all required components, compatibility, and OEM specifications necessary to meet the agency-s needs.
