Description
USDA, ARS, SAA intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, Uster Technologies, Inc. 1859 Lindbergh Street #300, Charlotte, NC to put in an OH (Optical Hairiness) upgrade to the existing USTER Tester 5-S800 at the Cotton Quality Research, Ravenel Center Place, Clemson, SC. The Cotton Quality Research Station requires an upgrade to their present Uster UT-5 Yarn Evenness Tester to accommodate the Optical Hairiness (Module). Cotton yarn hairiness is a defect caused by short fibers in the cotton and short fibers will continue to be one of their main focuses and will have a direct impact on their research. This is an attachment/upgrade to an existing equipment. Pursuant to 6.302-1(C)(ii), it is a follow on contract for the continued development or production of a major system or highly specialized equipment. Interested parties should submit written responses including prices and technical data sufficient to determine capability to meet the entire requirement and must be received in this office by Sept 18, 2009 at 1:00 p.m. It should be noted that no contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice, but will be used to determine if a comparable source more advantageous to the Government is available. If no affirmative written responses are received, negotiations will be held with Uster Technologies, Inc without further notice. This acquisition is being conducted under the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The anticipated award date is September 21, 2009.
