The requirements include printers, barcode scanners, Datapoint mounts, terminal emulation devices, report printer, field services, and robotic workflow integration. These components must interface with existing ScriptPro automation platforms already used by the facility. The procurement includes all associated labor, project management, and removal/disposal of replaced equipment to ensure a fully functional and compliant Workflow 2.0 environment.

Authority: FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i) (items peculiar to one manufacturer), FAR 8.405-6(b) (limited-sources justification), MAS ordering authorities at 41 U.S.C. 152(3) and 40 U.S.C. 501, and GSAM/R 538.7104-3(b) as implemented for MAS sole-source justifications (RFO 8.4).

Replacement with ScriptPro is necessary to mitigate patient-safety risks and operational disruption. Pricing aligns to ScriptPro s VA Federal Supply Schedule price list under FSS Contract 36F79719D0135.
