The company has a documented history of successful awards from the VA and other federal health agencies for medical devices and surgical instruments. This purchase order fulfills the market research conducted through the pre-solicitation notice issued in August 2025 by VISN 17 seeking sources for the specialized surgical access system, which required equipment to be new and compliant with Buy American Act and Trade Agreement obligations.
