Atlas Analysis
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. This procurement is specifically for portable diagnostic ultrasound systems. The Nonagon N9+ remote physical examination platform is not a compliant substitute and Atlas will not force a fit.
Atlas Opportunity Score: 46/100. This is a verified New Mexico healthcare equipment procurement, but direct Dr. Miltie/QC pursuit remains classified No Bid absent verified ISBEE eligibility and a fully compliant ultrasound product capability. Atlas recipient-facing outreach is also paused under the current federal-lane recovery control, so no new external outreach is authorized.
