- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Portland State University (PSU) for laboratory services in the development of methods for determining free-base nicotine levels in mainstream tobacco smoke samples collected by a smoking machine. The PSU Department of Chemistry laboratory has the expertise needed for this requirement as it is the only entity that is currently using a state-of-the-art, two-dimensional gas chromatograph with time-of-flight-mass spectrometer as well as accurate and robust overall machine smoking and analytical protocol for FBNLs in mainstream tobacco smoke and other tobacco products. Further, being a University laboratory, PSU offers necessary objectivity. This contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR13.106-1(b) (SAP) and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within fifteen (15) days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government. 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. Any quotation/response should be emailed to Christine Bennett at vhk8@cdc.gov by 9:00AM EST 17 April 2013.
