- Description
- Concerns having the ability to furnish the services and supplies described herein are requested to give written notification (including the telephone number for a point of contact) to the procuring office above within 25 calendar days from the date of this synopsis. The U.S. Geological Survey, Geologic Hazards Team, has a requirement for a preventive maintenance service agreement (full parts and labor) for a JEOL 8900 electron microprobe for a 12-month period, with an option for one additional year. The electron microprobe must be maintained in full operating condition at the manufacturer's specifications at all times, and must be maintained with highest priority service by JEOL factory-trained service personnel in order to insure proper maintenance and repair and to prevent damage to the instrument. There must be a minimum of two local factory-trained service engineers with specific training for the 8900 electron microprobe, as well as other factory-trained engineers who can be brought in if the normal (regional) service engineers are unavailable. It is critical to have the most immediate access possible to JEOL replacement parts when needed and direct communication with the JEOL factory in Japan when necessary. The microprobe is located in the Denver Microbeam Laboratory, Denver Federal Center, Denver, Colorado. Based on information available at this time, and in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 253(e)(l), implemented by FAR 5.302-1, the Government considers the item specified as a sole source from JEOL USA. Inc., Peabody, Massachusetts, and proposes to negotiate a contract with that firm on that basis. However, should additional sources be identified, they will be considered. Firms who feel that they can furnish the required services and supplies are invited to submit in writing an affirmative response to this announcement, and such other materials which correspond to the required items stated herein. This information will be evaluated and used to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Since no solicitation document exists, requests for such documents without accompanying information will be considered non-responsive to this request without further consideration. This notice may represent the Government's only official notice of this procurement.
