Re: Solicitation Number: 36C24219Q1205
VA VISN 2 s intends to negotiate with a sole source in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 — Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements for continued use and support of an existing Radiology Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS).
The existing PACS was procured via competitive procedures from Philips Healthcare Informatics, Inc. A recent competitive solicitation was released to procure a replacement PACS. VISN 2 must maintain continued use of the existing system until a new PACS system can be fully implemented. The transition process could take multiple years to complete.
This requirement is to sustain the usage of the currently operational Philips Intellispace PACS for the period of performance identified below at the VA VISN 2 Medical Centers identified in the draft SOW.
