- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to issue a sole source purchase order to BioMerieux, Inc, 100 Rodolphe Street, Durham, NC 27712, for purchase of an easyMAG system for automated extraction of nucleic acids in the polio laboratory. The BioMerieux unit had the following key requirements: flexible run size due to the cyclic nature of the workload (the ability to run less that maximum capacity will reduce supply costs and waste); ability to run various sample types and volumes as well as to elute the final product in different volumes depending on the input sample; and minimal consumable parts/supplies, with the system having minimal plastics and reducing long-term costs as well as minimizing waste and inventory. The BioMerieux system has capacity for 24 simultaneous extractions with the option of 1, 2, or 3 sets of 8 rather than an entire plate of 24 or 96 samples, can process various sample types and sample volumes from 0.01 ml up to 1.0 ml of sample within the same run without QS of the sample, allows the user to select different elution volumes for each sample within a run as low as 25 microliters, and has minimal plastics, using only 2 pieces as a set in any run. CDC believes that this requirement is met by only one provider. This procurement will be processed under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 and 6.302-2. Only one responsible source and no other sources will satisfy agency requirements. No solicitation is being issued. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. This procurement is not set-aside for small business. For contractual questions contact Linda M. Young.
