65--Notice of Intent

The U.S. Army Medical Command's Western Regional Contracting Office in Lacey, Washington, plans to award a sole source contract valued at approximately $56,300 to Med-El Corporation for the procurement of FDA-approved ear implants and related supplies. These items are intended for use in patient-specific surgeries conducted by surgeons at Madigan Army Medical Center, Washington. The acquisition will be conducted under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures outlined in FAR Part 13 and will not involve a formal solicitation or request for proposals. Although the contract is a sole source award, interested firms capable of supplying comparable products may submit documentation demonstrating product capabilities and specifications for consideration in future acquisitions. Respondents should send their information exclusively via email to the designated Purchasing Agent, Ruby Mejias, while telephone or facsimile submissions will not be accepted. This procurement aligns with FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1), and the effort aims to fulfill the medical needs of the Army using specifically approved equipment within the designated NAICS code 339113.
