What this opportunity is
The Department of Health and Human Services is seeking to award a firm-fixed-price purchase order for two complete CD Leycom INCA Pressure-Volume Loop Systems, along with accessories and training, specifically for the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's clinical studies. This opportunity is not set aside for small businesses, as it is a non-competitive solicitation directed at a sole source vendor, CD Leycom BV, which is the only manufacturer with FDA clearance for the required systems. Interested parties should note that this is a combined synopsis/solicitation, meaning they should track the notice for further details rather than submit bids.
