AI Contract Overview
The National Institutes of Health, through its Clinical Center’s Department of Perioperative Medicine, intends to award a sole-source contract to Baxter Healthcare for the purchase and upgrade of specialized surgical table positioning equipment. The need arises because existing equipment is deteriorating, posing increasing patient safety risks, and the accessories are uniquely designed to fit the specific surgical tables owned by the department, making them incompatible with alternatives from other vendors. This action is justified under 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, as only one responsible source can meet the agency’s requirements. This notice is not a request for proposal but an opportunity for other potentially responsible sources to submit capability statements by June 2, 2026, to evaluate whether competition is feasible. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 325412 and will be performed in Bethesda, Maryland. The government retains full discretion to proceed without competition regardless of responses received.

Acquisition Description:
The NIH-Clinical Center, Department of Perioperative Medicine (DPM) is dedicated solely to supporting clinical and surgical research. Research and education are important aspects of our mission.

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. All responsible sources that could provide the required may submit a capability statement that will be considered by email (subject line to reference NOI-CC-OLAO-26-006065) by 12:00 PM eastern standard time on 06/02/2026 to: valerie.gregorio@nih.gov.
