10--Pyrenees low-profile cervical plate system and Aleutian PEEK Interbody spacer

The US Army Medical Command Southern Region - East is seeking to procure a Pyrenees low-profile cervical plate system and an Aleutian PEEK Interbody spacer, including preparation and insertion instruments, with vendor support during surgical procedures. The contract is intended to be awarded as a sole source to K2M, Inc., located in Leesburg, Virginia. Key features of the Pyrenees system include a 1.5 mm leading edge and the innovative Tifix Locking Technology, which allows the screw heads to form an autogenic lock to the plate without additional locking mechanisms. The Aleutian spacer comes with the necessary instruments and requires the vendor's representative to attend the surgery to ensure proper use. Although this is not a request for proposal, other companies capable of providing equivalent products are encouraged to submit their technical capabilities, including product specifications, past performance, pricing, and delivery timelines. These submissions will be evaluated by government technical representatives for potential consideration in future procurement opportunities. The solicitation was posted in February 2011 under the NAICS code 339113, which pertains to surgical appliance and supplies manufacturing.
