65--Ablation Catheters and Sizing Balloons

The US Army Medical Command Southeast Region is seeking to acquire a Halo Catheter Starter Kit that includes specific medical components: one 31mm ablation catheter, three 33.7mm sizing balloons, and four Halo90 ablation catheters. The government plans to award this contract as a sole source to Barrx Medical, Inc. located in Sunnyvale, California, but invites other companies capable of supplying equivalent products to submit detailed technical information, past performance, pricing, and delivery timelines for future contract considerations. This is not a request for proposal but an opportunity for potential suppliers to demonstrate their capabilities. The contract, titled "65--Ablation Catheters and Sizing Balloons," was posted in October 2009 under solicitation number W91YTV10P0045, classified under NAICS code 334510, which pertains to medical equipment manufacturing. The government’s procurement approach highlights the importance of technical compliance and timely delivery while emphasizing Barrx Medical as the preferred contractor. The solicitation reinforces the government’s intent to ensure product quality and continuity while remaining open to alternative suppliers for upcoming contracts.
