Stryker Orthopedic Procedural Packages

The goal of the Manufacturer Direct Program is to establish an alternative to manual open market purchase activity and re-engineer the business process with an automated e-commerce business solution. The objective of this solicitation is to establish a Fixed Price (with Economic Price Adjustment) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with Stryker for their Spinal Orthopedic "procedural packages". The "procedural package" includes the orthopedic implants, instrumentation sets, and ancillary products (such as drill bits, saw blades, bone cement, etc.) that are necessary for the physician to perform the spinal orthopedic surgeries. The product mix that makes up the "procedural package" varies based on the individual needs of the patient. Other sole-source Stryker product groups may be solicited at a future date under the forthcoming solicitation.

The solicitation contains an on-site personnel requirement for the contractor to provide advice and guidance to physicians before, during, and after implantation of the device at the request of the Medical Treatment Facility. Technical support shall be available twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week.

Market research has revealed that there are no other known manufacturers or distributors other than Stryker who can provide DoD hospitals with the complete "procedural package" under all three delivery methods and have direct control over a sales force that is knowledgeable in Stryker's products. The Stryker Sales Representatives are experts on the vendor's products and are a vital part of helping to ensure that the patient is getting the necessary treatment. Stryker will have their product line loaded in the DLA Troop Support Medical Electronic Catalog (ECAT) system. All Orders, Order Confirmations, Invoices, and Payment transactions are required to be electronic. Items will be delivered to various Department of Defense (DoD) research centers, hospitals, clinics, and any federal customer participating in this program.

The terms of the contract will be a one-year Base Ordering Period and four one-year Ordering Periods.  This procurement has a total estimated value of $119,387,391 over the five-year life of the procurement.  The contract maximum is $491,835,235.25 over the five-year life of the contract.
