- Description
- This is the Sole Source Justification (SSJ) document. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award a sole source firm fixed-price purchase order to Emory University for an IRB-approved human-use protocol that enrolls thirty (30) MSMs who agree to be randomized into a three-arm study of PrEP and rectal lubricant use. Specimens collected from each patient must be processed for analysis the same day. Emory University is the only known vendor who is able to obtain a large number of study participants and process specimens the same day. Other vendors are able to meet some of the study requirements, however, specimen samples would require overnight shipping to CDC, and this does not meet the Government's requirement. 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. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within five (5) 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 the Contract Specialist, Lee Catherine Kennedy (LCKennedy@cdc.gov), by 2:00pm EDT) Monday, 8 September 2014.
