About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 has published a Special Notice regarding the procurement of Arthrex shoulder instruments. This is a brand name only acquisition specifically for Arthrex shoulder instruments, indicating the government has determined that only this particular manufacturer's products will meet their requirements. The notice is classified under NAICS code 339113 for Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing and PSC code 6515 for Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. The procurement does not utilize any set-aside provisions, making it open to all eligible contractors. The notice was posted on August 1, 2025, with responses due by August 7, 2025.

The purpose of this Special Notice appears to be an intent to sole source procurement, as indicated by the attached government file titled "INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE 36C24625Q0987.pdf." This suggests the VA has identified a specific need for Arthrex brand shoulder instruments and intends to award a contract without full and open competition. Contractors have until August 7, 2025, to respond to this notice, providing a six-day window for any potential responses or objections to the sole source approach. The brand name only specification indicates that the government has determined these specific instruments are essential for their medical operations and that no suitable alternatives exist. Given the sole source nature, participation eligibility would typically be limited to Arthrex or their authorized distributors, though other contractors may have the opportunity to demonstrate their products meet the same specifications and requirements.
