--Intent to Award to Cordis Corporation.

Madigan Army Medical Center plans to award a contract to Cordis Corporation for the supply of drug-eluting stents and related cardiac products. The contract will be established under FAR 13.106-1, with a performance period of one year and a maximum value not exceeding $100,000. This action is a notice of intent rather than a solicitation for competitive proposals, and the government retains full discretion regarding whether to pursue a competitive procurement based on any responses received. The contract relates to NAICS code 339113, which covers surgical appliance and supplies manufacturing. No solicitation will be issued, and any information submitted by parties in response to this notice will primarily be used to determine the need for competition rather than as part of a competitive process. Specific details such as the place of performance and points of contact are not provided in the notice.
