    QSL Notice of Intent (NOI) MD-2502-11 SKIN MARKERS.docx
    The Defense Health Agency (DHA) is preparing to establish a Qualified Suppliers Listing (QSL) for Skin Markers via a Sources Sought notification expected on or around May 1, 2025. This initiative, facilitated by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Medical/Surgical Prime Vendor program, seeks to identify suppliers of sterile and non-sterile skin marking devices used in medical settings. These devices must be non-toxic, utilize biocompatible ink, and comply with stringent medical standards, including production in Trade Agreements Act-compliant countries. Vendors wishing to participate must secure a Distribution and Pricing Agreement (DAPA) and ensure their accounts are active in the System for Award Management (SAM). The forthcoming QSL Announcement will provide detailed inclusion criteria and is intended solely for informational purposes—neither proposals nor inquiries will be accepted at this stage. This initiative underscores the DHA's commitment to ensuring that the medical material supply chain is standardized and compliant with federal procurement regulations.
