VHAPM Part 813.106 Page 1 of 1 Original Date: 08/30/17 Revision 01 Eff Date: 04/23/2018 DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Justification for Single Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K) Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C246-20-AP-4135 Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 06, Fayetteville VA Medical Center NCO 06/RPO East PR# 565-20-4-090-0136 Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: Estimated Contract Amount $100,000.00. This requirement is for a lease of 50 GoPhysio units at $25,000.00 a month for a total of $100,000.00. The GoPhysio is a fully interactive system designed for home, clinic, or remote use. The system will assist clinicians in arriving rapidly at correct treatment of their condition. It will also allow clinicians to monitor progress and treat more patients, concurrently. This is done through real time corrective feedback to ensure clinically correct movements and counting and encouraging the patient to complete the sessions. Currently, there is a substantial backlog for in and outpatient rehabilitative and wellness services for Veteran and Active Duty Service Members. There exist opportunities to implement virtual systems which will allow increased access for the patients, as well as improved oversight and enhanced adherence to prescribed rehabilitative programs for the clinicians. The GoPhysio system created by 4D Health Science, LLC has been designed specifically to address this need and allows full treatment programs to be administered remotely. The Go Physio system is designed to do much of the leg work of the physical therapist and thereby aiding the physical therapist in being able to assess patients through the VR data and adjust treatment per the data. All this will be done remotely; and thus, helping the VA maintain social distancing and improving efficiency with our physical therapy department during the COVID-19 pandemic. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The GoPhysio system and its components developed and patented by 4D Health Science, LLC. The GoPhysio system is the only product of its kind. The customized AI program has the ability to perform and document patient table or floor movements for rehabilitative and wellness services. This system gives real-time corrective feedback to ensure clinically correct movements and counting and encouraging the patient to complete the sessions through an AI avatar. The Go Physio will act like a virtual physical therapist assistant. Market research has determined no other supplies can replicate the GoPhysio and its functions.
