A solicitation document will not be issued and quotations will not be requested. The National Institute of Health/Clinical Center/Office of Purchasing and Contracts intends to award a firm fixed price contract to Synthes DEPUY SYNTHES SALES INC, Raynham, Massachusetts 02767-5199 for medical screws and plates. DEPUY SYNTHES SALES INC. is the only vendor/manufacturer that can provide the Screws and plates specifically designed to be used on patients who undergo Craniotomy surgery where their skull has been opened to operate on their brain. To put the skull back together, screws and plates are needed. Approval of the purchase of the Depuy Synthes low profile screws and plates will ensure the Fixation Set that carries these items is complete, and the surgeon will have the items they need at the time of surgery. The self-drilling, self-retaining screws with modified cruciform recess facilitate the rapid replacement of bone flap. The proposed vendor, Depuy Synthes, is the vendor of choice that provides the best product. The staff is fully trained on proper cleaning and sterilizing the instruments and implants in the set. The surgeon is familiar with the product and knows how to utilize it properly. The items being requested get put inside of an instrument set and sterilized. They are considered Implants. Implants are items left in the patient during surgery. We currently have three sets with all items needed that work in conjunction with each other. By purchasing these items from another company, there will not be compatible. We would then have to buy all items that go with that company set. The Department of Peri-Operative Medicine will telephone or e-mail request for required supplies on a needed basis.
