6515--Arthrex Synergy Vision System

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through the Network Contracting Office 6, is conducting market research for the acquisition of the Arthrex Synergy Vision System to be delivered to the Salisbury VA Medical Center in North Carolina. This pre-solicitation notice, designated as 36C24626Q0422, is not a formal request for proposals or quotes but is intended to gather information on the availability, capability, and pricing of the system from potential vendors. The requirement is unrestricted and open to the commercial market under NAICS code 339113, with a size standard of 800 employees. The solicitation is scheduled to be formally issued on or about May 19, 2026, and all responses to this pre-solicitation must be submitted via email to [email hidden], with telephone inquiries not accepted. The system includes specific Arthrex-manufactured components such as the Synergy Vision Connect CCU, HDR C-mount camera, 32-inch LED surgical monitor, 4K arthroscopes, shaver consoles, footswitches, and transport cases, all of which must be supplied by an authorized Arthrex distributor to prevent use of gray market products. Vendors responding to this notice are required to provide their Unique Entity ID, size status, socioeconomic certifications, taxpayer identification number, and an authorized distributor letter from Arthrex to validate product authenticity and compliance. While no contract value, pricing, or payment terms have been established, the anticipated delivery schedule requires fulfillment within 30 days after receipt of a formal order. The place of performance is the Salisbury VAMC, and the government retains responsibility for inspection and acceptance at that location. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, or special requirements such as packaging standards, barcoding mandates, or inspection procedures are currently defined, as these will be detailed in the upcoming formal solicitation. The document explicitly states that no FAR contract clauses are applicable at this stage, and no contracting officer’s representative or technical representative has been identified. Financial data, including appropriation codes or accounting information, is not included in this preliminary notice and will be finalized in the future solicitation.
