Opthalmology items

Added: Sep 15, 2017 5:28 pm

The objective of this sole source award is to procure AMO Sales and Service INC. Lenses, Signature Tubing and Patient Interfaces. The reason for the sole source is because of the requirement for consumable that works with the instruments and Johnson & Johnson equipment already purchased that the staff surgeons know how to use.

The notice of this intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation document exists for this requirement. This is also a highly urgent requirement for the facility and any information received based off this notice will be considered for future acquisitions.
