Notice of Intent to Restrict Competition for Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty

The Navajo Area Indian Health Service (NAIHS), on behalf of Gallup Indian Medical Center located in Gallup, New Mexico intends to restrict competition and negotiate directly with Alcon Vision LLC (UEI: PHBTLNJ4WCM5). Alcon Vision LLC is the only source capable of fulfilling this requirement because the Voyager DSLT (Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty) system is the only FDA-cleared SLT platform that delivers fully automated, non-contact, 360 treatment directly to the trabecular meshwork without a gonioscopy lens. No other commercially available SLT system offers this combination of non-contact delivery and automated 360 treatment. The NAICS code is 339112, Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing, with an associated small business size standard of 1,000 employees. The delivery date is 90 days after date of award. The simplified acquisition procedures at 12.102(a) will be utilized. This notice is not a solicitation or request for offers. Vendors capable of providing the stated equipment may submit a capability statement. Verbal responses will not be considered. Responses are due September 1, 2026 by 3:00 pm MDT. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A solicitation will not be issued. The point of contact for this action is Misty Billy, Contract Specialist and can be reached at misty.billy@ihs.gov.
