    The Department of Veterans Affairs seeks to procure the Medtronic PTeye Parathyroid detection system, an advanced intraoperative device designed to enhance surgical accuracy by distinguishing parathyroid glands from other tissues. This procurement falls under a single-source award justification due to the unique characteristics of the system, which is the only dye-free parathyroid detection technology available, crucial for preventing complications in sensitive populations such as veterans. Despite efforts to identify authorized resellers, the system is only manufactured by Medtronic, leading to the decision to post this requirement as a small business set-aside on sam.gov due to the presence of small business distributors. The procurement aims to maintain high-quality patient care and safety in surgical procedures, supporting the overall health and well-being of veterans by reducing surgical errors and complications associated with parathyroid removal. The contracting officer, Ashley Kenyon, certifies that this procurement complies with federal acquisition regulations and is deemed necessary for effective healthcare delivery.
