This is a firm-fixed-price delivery order issued under the DLA contract SPE2D1-18-D-0006, with Change Healthcare Technologies LLC identified as the sole provider capable of delivering the required supplies and services at the necessary quality because the items are unique or highly specialized. Prices have been determined fair and reasonable under the DLA contract, so no separate pricing determination is required.
A justification for an exception to fair opportunity was approved, resulting in a sole-source award to Change Healthcare Technologies LLC for a total of $266,925.49. This reflects the government’s determination that competition is not practicable for this upgrade and confirms the noncompetitive procurement to meet the PACS upgrade needs.
This contract action was not awarded competitively. The Delivery Order is for upgrades of the Change Healthcare Enterprise Imaging PACS, due to an end of support of, version 14.1, operating on Windows Server 2016 OS, to version 14.2.2, operating on Windows Server 2022 OS. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation a Firm Fixed Price Delivery Order will be issued to Change Healthcare Technologies, LLC. Change Healthcare Technologies, LLC is the only one awardee capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services ordered are unique or highly specialized. A Delivery Order will be issued under the terms and conditions of Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) contract SPE2D1-18-D-0006. DLA has negotiated fair and reasonable prices and determined the prices awarded under contract SPE2D1-18-D-0006 to be fair and reasonable; thus, a separate determination of fair and reasonable pricing is not required. The Contracting Officer has conducted a price evaluation to ensure that the quoted prices are equal to or less than the contract price.
