Description
This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with FAR 12.6, Streamlined Procedures for Commercial Items, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. It is incumbent upon contractors to monitor the FEDBIZOPS web page for any/all subsequent amendments. FEDBIZOPS also contains an option for automatic notification service. The solicitation number is HSFE20-12-Q-0110. The solicitation is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). Provisions and clauses in effect through the most recent Federal Acquisition Circular are incorporated. It is the contractor's responsibility to be familiar with the applicable clauses and provisions. The clauses may be accessed in full text at these addresses: www.acqnet.gov/far and www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dfars/index.htm. The NAICS code is 334519, with a size standard of 500 employees. This is a full and open competition. All businesses are encouraged to submit a quote. The Federal Emergency Management Agency, on behalf of the Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP), requests responses from qualified sources capable of providing: 200 each NIDS 5-Plex assays (ANP Technologies part number 5L-001) and 200 each NIDS Sampling Kits (ANP Technologies part number SK-001). THIS IS A BRAND NAME ONLY REQUIREMENT pursuant to FAR 6.302-1(c). The Brand Name Only Justification is based on A) The NIDS reader, an instrument already incorporated into the CDP's training, operates solely in conjunction with the NIDS assays. It would not be cost effective to purchase new readers in addition to assays. B) NIDS offers technology that is unique; through advances in nanotechnology, NIDS assays have been designed to control the orientation of bioactive molecules (i.e. antibodies) at the nonoscale level. As such, the NIDS platform is configured with preferentially attached (i.e. orchestrated) antibodies to facilitate the capture of analytes (in solution) that have been introduced to the assay via the sample well. BRAND NAME ONLY SPECIFICATIONS: 1. 200 each NIDS 5-Plex assays (ANP Technologies part number 5L-001) and 200 each NIDS Sampling Kits (ANP Technologies part number SK-001). 2. All equipment shall be new from the manufacturer. Used or refurbished equipment, or equipment obtained from a third party shall not be accepted. 3. FOB Destination, Anniston, AL, 36205. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD: The Government intends to award a purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer is the lowest price technically acceptable offer, which shall represent best value to the Government. Award shall be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors (i.e. technical conformance to the requirements of the solicitation). Evaluation of price will be based on the offeror's total price for all line items as delivered to the specified destination. Past Performance is not an evaluation factor for this acquisition. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: 1. Technically acceptable in conformance to the requirements of the solicitation. 2. Price (total price). The offeror's initial proposal shall contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions, but reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government reserves the right to make no award as a result of this solicitation. INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS: Offerers shall provide sufficient technical documentation (including but not limited to: product literature, specifications) to allow for thorough evaluation of proposal. Additionally, the vendor shall fully explain their ability to meet the requirements above. This is an all or nothing award. Please submit a complete quote listing the both required items. The offeror must quote on both items or the offeror's quote will not be considered. Shipping shall be FOB Destination. Quote shall specify the Total Price. Quotes will be evaluated for Completeness (all CLINS are priced). Adequate competition is anticipated for this acquisition. The government anticipates award of a Firm Fixed Price purchase order.
