Sole Source: Precice Nail System and Anthem Tibia Plate System

The Defense Health Agency HCD West is proceeding with a sole-source procurement under FAR 12.102(a) for the Precice Nail System and Anthem Tibia Plate System from Globus Medical North America, Inc., the exclusive manufacturer since January 2025, to support an ongoing limb-lengthening treatment at Naval Medical Center San Diego. The acquisition is non-competitive due to the proprietary nature of the devices, the absence of clinically acceptable alternatives, and the critical need to maintain surgical continuity and patient safety, as switching systems would require invasive replacements and additional surgeon retraining. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price purchase order with delivery required no later than August 12, 2026, to the specified address in San Diego, California. The solicitation number is HT941026N0090, posted on July 21, 2026, with a response deadline of August 4, 2026, for capability statements intended to challenge the sole-source determination. Offers must be submitted via email in Microsoft Word or PDF format, not exceeding four pages, and must include detailed management, technical, and cost information. No set-asides are in effect, and the NAICS code is 339112. Packaging, labeling, barcoding, invoicing procedures, payment details, and formal contract clauses are not specified, consistent with commercial item procurement under FAR 12. The Government will perform inspection and acceptance at the delivery location, and no contract value estimate is provided. The point of contact for submissions is Cha-on Gordon and Michelle Sanders, with no designated COR, COTR, or PCO identified.
