SPECIAL NOTICE NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE/AWARD The Network Contracting Office (NCO) 16, located at Galleria Financial Center, 5075 Westheimer Rd, Ste 750, Houston, TX 77056, intends to solicit and award Sole Source, Firm-Fixed-Price, lease agreement with a base year and four one year option periods to one Large Business (LB) source, Olympus America, Inc. The Gastrointestinal Endoscope Medical Equipment Lease equipment and accessories will be for the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System (CAVHS) Little Rock, AR 72112. Olympus equipment is currently being utilized and standardized at CAVHS. Olympus products are proprietary to the OEM. This purchase will be made under FAR Part 8 and Limiting Sources, as authorized by FAR 8.405 6. A Firm Fixed Price lease is the optimal acquisition approach because the required endoscopy systems and accessories are commercially available on the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) under Olympus Contract 36F79721D0168, permitting ordering under FAR Subpart 8.4. The FFP lease structure ensures predictable, stable pricing over the base and option years, which supports budgeting and reduces administrative burden. Under this model, all required equipment, embedded software, and OEM warranty support are provided at known, pre-negotiated rates, eliminating cost variability and ensuring uninterrupted clinical capability for CAVHS. Leasing through the FSS under FAR 8.4 also accelerates procurement timelines, maintains compliance with pre established Schedule terms and conditions, and guarantees access to OEM authorized maintenance essential for patient safety, equipment standardization, and operational readiness across the VA healthcare system.
