What the notice says

The Joseph Maxwell Cleland Atlanta VA Medical Center has a (1) Mozart 3-D Specimen Tomosynthesis System from KUB Technologies, for X-rays of breast specimens after localization lumpectomies or excisions. Mozart iQ system utilizes 3D specimen tomosynthesis (the standard of care in breast cancer surgery) to take X-ray images of breast specimens. Viewing the image in 3 dimensions allows for accurate and precise identification of the tumor and clip, which can be obscured by dense tissue on traditional 2D imaging. Currently, Atlanta VA does not have such a device.

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.

Investor context
  • $BSX reported $14.2B revenue in FY2025. The median single-winner award in these 5 past awards, $531K, is under 0.1% of that. 10-K

One award's total value against one year of revenue; many awards are paid over several years.
