- Description
- Reference Number: NHLBI-CSB-AR-2012-295-CSP Title: Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source to PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc. for the Sciclone and its Components The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), Office of Acquisitions (OA), on behalf of the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), intends to negotiate on a sole source basis and award a purchase order, for the Sciclone and its Components, to PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc., 710 Bridgeport Ave., Shelton, CT 06484-4794 under the authority of (FAR) Subpart 13.106-1. "(b) Soliciting from a single source. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. This announcement constitutes the only notice; proposals are not being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-60, August 27, 2012. The corresponding NAICS code is 334516-Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and the small business size standard is 500 Employees. The basis for the sole source determination: The sole source determination is based on the fact that PerkinElmer's Sciclone liquid handling system is the only single gantry system capable of simultaneously combing 96 abd 384 tip arrays with 8-channel independent Z axis pipetting, and up to 48 independent bulk dispense channels with an integrated gripper hand. This is the only device to provide both positive pressure and vacuum filtration systems with ultra sonic verification. The only way to identify and delineate the role of potential enhancers genome wide- is to utilize a high-throughput method involving knocking out these potential enhancers- and study the impact of the deletion on transcription. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement, in writing, no later than the response date. Written responses to this notice shall contain sufficient documentation to establish a bona fide capability to fulfill the requirement. Written responses shall reference this Notice of Intent No. NHLBI-CSB-AR-2012-295-CSP and may be submitted electronically NO LATER THAN 9:00 A.M. EASTERN STANDARD TIME September 04, 2012 to the Contract Specialist, Caitlin Palmer at: Caitlin.palmer@nih.gov. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract 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.
