Integra Shoulder System
The Regional Health Contracting Office-Pacific, in support of Bassett Army Community Hospital (BACH), Alaska, intends to make a sole source award to Buffalo Supply Inc. for the urgent purchase of Integra shoulder system components for the Department of Surgery at BACH, Alaska. The physician requesting the supplies has verified the need for these brand name products to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient. Therefore, these surgical implants are the only ones that can meet the Government's current need. Buffalo Supply Inc. is the exclusive distributor of these surgical implants. The authority permitting this award without providing full and open competition is cited in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) which authorizes the government to award contracts when there is only one source reasonably available (e.g. urgency, exclusive licensing agreement, brand name or industrial mobilization).
