- Description
- Solicitation Number: W81XWH-14-T-0367 Notice Type: Presolicitation Synopsis: The United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) has a requirement in support of the U.S Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (MRICD) in accordance with the specifications listed in the Minimum Essential Criteria to be provided in the solicitation, Ft Detrick, MD 21702. This procurement is a BRAND NAME ONLY. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334516. This solicitation will be issued electronically in accordance with FAR 4.501, 5.102(a)(7) and 14.205-1(c); therefore hardcopies will not be provided. Proposals submitted must be in electronic format as stated in the solicitation. All responses to this solicitation must be submitted in digitized/electronic format. Paper copy responses will not be accepted. This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 05-74. This requirement will be for Firm Fixed Price purchase order for the purchase of AB Sciex Qtrap 6500 based on the Minimum Essential Specifications BRAND NAME only. Minimum Essential Characteristics (MECS) for liquid chromatograph/triple quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometer: Must be a hybrid triple quadrupole linear trap mass spectrometer instrument. Must be capable of using a differential ion mobility spectrometry device used for applications requiring the separation of isobaric species, isolation of challenging co-eluting contaminants and reduction of high background noise. Must have a mass range (m/z) of 5-2000 Da in triple quadrupole mode. Must have a mass range (m/z) of 50-2000 Da in linear ion trap mode. Must have a maximum scan speed of 12,000 Da/sec in triple quadrupole mode and 20,000 Da/sec in linear ion trap mode. Must be able to switch ionization mode polarity with a 20 msec settling time between polarities, continuously. Must be capable of acquiring 12 MRM transitions in positive mode, switching polarity acquiring 12 MRM transitions in negative mode and switching polarity again to positive mode for a total cycle time of 160 msec. Using the the MRM3 transition of 609.3/397/365 for a 50 fg reserpine injection the instrument must have a S/N greater than 150:1 where the noise is defined as the standard deviation of the baseline without smoothing. For 10 replicate injections under these conditions, the standard deviation of the peak area must be less than 5%. Must have a dynamic range of 6 orders of magnitude. Must have a mass stability of 0.1 amu over 8 hrs at m/z 906.7 with normal operating temperature and after it has reached vacuum and electronics equilibrium. Must have no significant crosstalk detectable for reserpine (0.17 pmol/uL infused) while monitoring the MRM transitions of 609/195 and 100/195 with a 1 ms dwell time and 3 msec inter-MRM pause time. The difference in response for reserpine with 2 ms dwell and 3 msec inter-MRM pause time vs. 100 ms dwell with 10 msec inter-MRM pause must be less than 10%. Must have full scan MS and selected ion monitoring for both Q1 and Q3, product ion scan, precursor ion scan, neutral loss or gain scan, multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), enhanced MS scan, enhanced product ion scan, enhanced resolution scan, MS3 scan, MRM3 scan, and TripleTrap Scan modes. Must be capable of performing electrospray ionization and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization and an photo ionization in both the positive and negative ion modes. Must have an integrated data system capable of controlling the instrument and associated liquid chromatographs, acquiring data and performing subsequent data analysis. Must be capable of being used with appropriate power conditioning equipment. All responsible sources may submit a quote, which shall be considered by the agency. The competitive solicitation, solicitation amendments and all questions and answers relating to this procurement shall be made available via the Internet at https://acquisition.army.mil/asfi/ or https://www.fedbizopps.gov The solicitation is anticipated for release to the vendor community on or about July 25th, 2014 and will only be available through August 12, 2014.
