- Description
- Notice of Intent to Sole Source for Zeiss Maintenance Service Renewal In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, the Department of Energy (DOE), National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) intends to award a purchase order, on a sole source basis, to Carl Zeiss Microscopy, LLC. for Zeiss Protect Service Agreement for the NETL owned Zeiss Xradia Micro CT Scanner (MicroXCT-400) for the period of May 15, 2016 through May 14, 2017. Failure to continue the maintenance agreement will put the NETL at risk of failure or loss of service that could severely impact the organizations ability to operate in an efficient and effective manner. The maintenance agreement ensures continued use of the equipment and covers replacement units and upgrades of the equipment (as necessary) to keep the units operable within the NETL operating environment. This is considered a sole source to Carl Zeiss Microscopy, LLC because, to the best of the NETL?s knowledge, based on market research conducted Carl Zeiss Microscopy, LLC is the only known source that can provide this type of service. No known potential alternate sources exist which could satisfy NETL's requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for quote/proposal. Any interested party that believes it is capable of meeting the NETL requirement described herein may identify themselves and must provide evidence of their capability to fulfill the requirement being requested by 5:30 PM ET on March 2, 2016. Responses must be submitted in writing to Robert.mohn@netl.doe.gov no later than the time and date noted above. Telephone responses and requests will not be received. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
