About this opportunity
The Defense Health Agency is seeking to procure five anterior vitrectomy systems for use in deployed field hospital settings through this Request for Information (RFI W81K04-25-Q0065-RFI). The equipment must be specifically designed for anterior eye procedures including phacoemulsification and diathermy capabilities, with FDA 510k approval required and vitrector cutting speeds of at least 2000 cuts per minute. The systems must be compatible with 23-27 gauge surgical diameters and operate on standard 110/220V power while maintaining portability, durability, and reliability in extreme field conditions. Key requirements include Trade Agreements Act compliance, comprehensive repair parts support, user maintenance manuals, and ruggedized shipping cases not exceeding 70 pounds or 1.0 cubic meters. The RFI was posted on July 10, 2025, with responses due by midnight Eastern on July 21, 2025, and must be submitted electronically to specified contracting personnel using Arial 12-point font formatting.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is classified under NAICS code 339113 for Surgical Application and Supplies Manufacturing. The solicitation specifies a firm fixed-price contract structure managed by the Program Executive Office Soldier at Fort Detrick, Maryland, though no specific budget ranges or award values are disclosed in the pre-solicitation documentation. The government is seeking exactly five vitrectomy systems designed for Role of Care 3 deployed settings, with emphasis on equipment that can withstand temperature extremes and shock during transport to forward medical locations worldwide. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the available documentation, and the timeline for actual procurement following this information-gathering phase has not been specified.
Notice text
The USAMMDA WDMSP has a requirement to modernize the Anterior Vitrectomy System equipment used in field
environments in far forward locations around the world. The end item must be small, lightweight, portable, durable,
reliable, easily maintainable, and capable of transport and operation in forward areas - field hospital settings. Field
conditions for transport include temperature extremes which are higher and lower than typical room temperature
conditions in laboratories or other fixed facilities. Transport case and equipment lock-down capabilities should
ensure the equipment can survive shock, introduced in drops or other jarring, during shipping. Power usage should
be minimized.
