- The USDA-ARS-National Laboratory for Agriculture and the Environment (NLAE) in Ames, IA, intends to award a purchase award for a 12-month service maintenance agreement, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR Part 13.106(b) with AB Sciex LLC for maintenance on the AB Sciex Qtrap 5500 Configured System with Quaternary Pump. This service maintenance agreement will be procured as a commercial item in accordance with the procedures in FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) and FAR Part 13 (Simplified Acquisition Procedures). The sole source determination is based on AB Sciex LLC being the sole source for factory trained labor and maintenance services for this system sold and operated together. The required service maintenance agreement must include 2 preventative maintenance visits for the system per contract year, guaranteed 2 business day on-site response for remedial repairs, parts, labor and travel for remedial repairs, hardware and application telephone support, access to StatusScope, periodical email containing software, application and service bulletins and discount on fixed price services not considered remedial repairs. The period of performance for the service maintenance agreement commences on September 16, 2015 and concludes September 15, 2016. The anticipated total value of the purchase order is $40,684.65. This is not a request for quote. However, all interested parties may contact the Purchasing Agent listed below. Sources interested in responding to this requirement must be able to provide compelling evidence that they can obtain/provide a maintenance agreement contact utilizing factory authorized parts and service that will not invalidate equipment warranties for the listed equipment. Responses must be submitted electronically, via email, to lara.j.hicok@aphis.usda.gov. The deadline for the submittal of responses is 3:00pm CST September 4, 2015.
