OFFICIAL NOTICE CONTENT
Opportunity description
This is a sources sought notice. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support is seeking sources capable of providing Medtronic cardiovascular "procedural packages". The "procedural package" includes the cardiovascular products and ancillary accessories (such as needles for entry and guidewire) that are necessary for the physician to perform the cardiovascular surgeries. The product mix that makes up the "procedural package" varies based on the individual needs of the patient. All products must be approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The products that make up the �procedural package� must be delivered Just-In-Time (JIT), Direct Vendor Delivery (DVD) and Consignment. Under the JIT delivery method, the Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) calls the manufacturer�s field representative who carries the products into the MTF just-in-time for the surgery. The manufacturer�s sales representative may bring many sizes and types of implants and other auxiliary products to the surgery along with the instrumentation sets. Under the DVD method an order for products is placed through ECAT and the products are delivered direct to the customer via any transportation carrier. Under the consignment method, a Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) will have the products that make up the procedural package consigned to their facility. At the request of the MTF�s, the manufacturer is required to have a qualified representative on site at the MTF�s within the timeframe specified by the facility necessary to meet their requirements. The manufacturer�s representative provides technical advice and guidance to the physicians before, during and after implantation. Furthermore, technical support is available twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. This is a Request For Information (RFI) and does not commit the U.S. Government to issue a solicitation, make an award or pay any costs associated with responding to this announcement. All submitted information shall remain with the U.S. Government and will not be returned. Your response to this RFI shall be submitted electronically in PDF format and emailed to kathleen.adamow-wandall@dla.mil

GOVBIDFIT SCREENING LENS
What deserves attention before you spend bid time
These screening signals are generated from the public notice fields stored for this specific opportunity. They are not eligibility findings or predictions; they are prompts for a faster, more disciplined review of the official solicitation.
This notice appears to be market research rather than a conventional bid invitation. A capability response, technical feedback or evidence of market interest may matter more than a price proposal at this stage.
The stored response date leaves more than ten days, but amendments and pre-response milestones can shorten the usable preparation window.
No Set aside used is recorded as the set-aside or restriction. Confirm the bidding entity actually satisfies the applicable program and size requirements before investing proposal time.
NAICS 339113 is the recorded classification. Use it as a screening clue, then compare the actual scope and deliverables rather than treating the code alone as proof of fit.
GovBidFit stores the source notice text, but its length does not prove the requirements are complete. Review official attachments, clauses, amendments and Q&A before relying on the description.
The source data includes 1 public contracting contact. Use the solicitation's stated communication rules and deadlines before contacting the buyer.

These fields help narrow your search, but they do not replace the full solicitation, amendments, attachments, clauses or eligibility language on the official source.
