DuoMAG MP-Dual TMS System

The National Institutes of Health is preparing to award a sole-source Firm-Fixed-Price Purchase Order for a DuoMAG MP-Dual transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) system to Brainbox Ltd, with capability statements from small businesses due by May 28, 2026. The procurement is justified under FAR Part 6.302-1 based on Brainbox Ltd's status as the authorized distributor meeting NIH standards, with no other identified source capable of providing the required products and services.

The Human Cortical Physiology & Neurorehabilitation Section of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke requires a TMS stimulator capable of delivering monophasic paired pulses at precisely specified time intervals with variable stimulation intensity. The device must be compatible with the existing BrainSight neuro-navigation system, real-time closed-loop EEG-TMS system (BOSS), and Cambridge Electronics Design controller hardware, with future compatibility for alternative coil designs and robotic coil positioning arms.

The equipment will support interventional studies for developing novel therapies to improve motor skill recovery in patients with brain injury or disease. Although this is not a competitive procurement, small businesses in all categories (8(a), service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, small disadvantaged, veteran-owned, and women-owned small businesses) may submit written capability statements by 6:00 a.m. EDT on May 28, 2026. Award is anticipated approximately ten days after this notice unless the Government determines another vendor has comparable capability. The contracting office contact is david.shen@nih.gov.
