- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Global Monitoring Division (GMD) proposes to negotiate on a sole source basis a contract under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) with M & C Products Analysis Technology, Inc., 1879 Portola Rd. Ste G, Ventura, CA 93003-8095 for 4-channel chillers with glass condensers and parts to dry the sample air streams for the measurements of atmospheric composition at the NOAA/GMD tall towers observatories. Each channel must be able to cool 5 standard liters per minute (SLPM) of air to a dew point of less than 4 deg C. Also required are liquid alarm sensors and related electronics that are accessories for the chillers. Sole source determination is based on NOAA's requirement for having compatible chillers and accessories at all field sites so that equipment is interchangeable. This facilitates fabrication and maintenance and will reduce downtime at the sites. The parts requested are used at pre-existing sites and were selected based upon extensive laboratory testing and market research. Extensive testing and downtime would be involved for different parts to be introduced. Delivery shall be FOB destination, Boulder CO and is required 30 days ARO. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516 and the size standard is 500 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by August 7, 2007 in making the final sole source determination. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
