- Description
- Redacted SSJ This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source purchase order and is not a request for competitive proposals. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), NIOSH hereby announces its intent to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Entech Instruments Inc. for the procurement of a 7200 Turnkey Preconcentrator (3 stage). The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) as cited in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). Entech Instruments Inc. is the only vendor that meets all of the requirements. The 7200 Turnkey Preconcentrator (3 stage) system will be used for ongoing research projects as well as upcoming health hazard evaluation field screening. This system will replace the currently installed 7150 preconcentrator system. It will eliminate the need for carbon dioxide cylinders. It will also expand the capacity to the laboratory for volatile organic compound analysis from canisters. Our GC laboratory is equipped with Entech instruments and canisters that will only interface with other Entech equipment. The 7200 Preconcentrator must be attached to a 7650 auto-sampler in order to analyze samples. In addition, this preconcentrator uses silonite coated technology and eliminates mass flow controllers to minimize volatile organic compound losses in the sample flow path. No other manufacturer's preconcentrator can be interfaced with the 7650 auto-sampler. 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 FAR 13.106-1(b) and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. Interested parties who feel they possess the expertise, experience and ability should submit a capabilities statement to Tonya S. Justice, Contract Specialist, via email at TJustice@cdc.gov. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals, however, the Government shall consider all responses received within ten (10) days of this posting, in accordance with FAR 5.203 (A)(1). If no affirmative responses are received within ten (10) days, negotiations will be conducted with Entech Instruments Inc. as the only source and a contract will be issued. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract, based upon responses to this notification, is solely within the discretion of the government and Contracting Officer. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. FAR REFERENCE: FAR 5.207- Preparation and transmittal of synopses under (c)(15), (c)(16) (i), and (c)(16)(ii).
