Cook Medical Procedural Packages

The DLA Troop Support has awarded a sole source, fixed-price contract with economic price adjustment to Cook Medical for the procurement of procedural packages. This award was justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, as market research and a sources sought notice confirmed that Cook Medical is the only responsible source capable of satisfying the agency's requirements. The determination was based on the specialized nature of the cardiovascular marketplace, where physician preference and specific surgical training outweigh price considerations. Managed by the Department of Defense in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the contract falls under NAICS code 339112. The procurement process began with a solicitation posted on February 1, 2024, and concluded following a response deadline of March 1, 2024. Primary points of contact for this action are Matthew Peoples and Charles T. Reimer.
