The Regional Health Contracting Office – Pacific, in support of Tripler Army Medical Center (TAMC), Hawaii, intends to make a sole source award to Cerus Corporation for the purchase of Cerus Intercept Illuminator 60Hz. These supplies are the only ones that can meet the Government’s need. Cerus Corporation is the sole provider of the Cerus Intercept Illuminator which delivers a controlled dose of ultraviolet light to blood products as part of the process to inactivate pathogens. The illuminator is used in conjunction with platelets and plasma in an Intercept processing set. 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 available (e.g. urgency, exclusive licensing agreement, brand name or industrial mobilization).
