Neurosurgical Products

SUNY Upstate Medical University is soliciting vendors for neurosurgical products and related disposable products under a purchase from a Premier contract, with responses due November 23, 2026. The purchase proceeds under New York State Finance Law section 163(3)(vi), which allows buying from a consortium contract without a formal competitive process when justified by price. Vendors must be authorized to sell the listed products on the Premier contract or an approved equivalent.

Vendors offering a clinical equivalent to a listed product must demonstrate equivalency through clinical performance, provide supporting clinical documentation at no cost, and supply equipment for examination, demonstration, and trial. Interested vendors may contact Rachel Hawthorne only. Under NY Finance Law 139-j and 139-k, contact with any other Upstate individual about this advertisement may constitute a violation, and consequences range from no contract award to debarment from sales to any New York State agency.

These include surgical burrs and drills in carbide, diamond, and stainless steel; electrosurgical forceps; irrigation attachments; sterilization trays; power drill systems; and minimally invasive surgery attachments. Many products are built for use with Midas Rex, Zimmer Ultrapower TPS, Elite Core TPS, and Maestro drill systems.

Stryker is listed as a business enterprise awarded an identical or substantially similar procurement contract within the past five years. The successful contractor must submit valid and current NYS Workers' Compensation and Disability forms.
