- Scinomix Equipment Listing Notice of Intent The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Environmental Health, Division of Laboratory Sciences intends to award a sole source firm-fixed price equipment maintenance contract to Scinomix Inc 4069 Wedgeway CT Earth City, MO 63045-1213. This contract will have a 12 month base period with 3-12 month option periods. The statutory authority for this sole source acquisition is 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c) (1) in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1- only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirement. The Division of Laboratory Sciences, Nutritional Biomarkers Branch and Clinical Chemistry Branch uses a Scinomix Sci-Print VX2 fully automated vial labeling machine. The Sci-Print VX2 prints the label and applies it to the vial, able to cap and uncap screw top lids and fill the vials. This system is useful for the Nutritional Biomarkers Branch to prepare quality control pools and calibration materials. The Clinical Chemistry Branch uses the system in the protein biomarker and lipid reference laboratories to prepare materials for CDC Clinical Standardization Programs. These instruments are used to aliquot, label, and create database inventory of over 240 pools into over 70,000 vials annually as part of the certification programs. Scinomix is the only company able to service the Sci-Print VX2 system for the following reasons: A - Scinomix alone has access to the proprietary software used in controlling the instrument B - Scinomix is the sole manufacturer of the Sci-Print VX2 system and therefore has knowledge and access to the parts needed for repairs and regular maintenance. See attached equipment listing. This work requires Scinomix who is the original manufacture to do repair work in order to not void the warranty and to ensure proper operation of the Sci-Print VX2. The service contract uses proprietary knowledge of the instrument and the software. They are the only contractor that can fulfill all customer requirements. The NAICS code is 334516 with a size standard of 1,000 employees. No solicitation will be posted to FedBizOpps. We will only issue a solicitation to Scinomix Inc. Scinomix Inc is the only source available to provide this service that meets mission critical requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for proposal. A determination to compete this procurement based on response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. Interested parties who believe they possess the capability to satisfy this requirement should submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to meet this requirement. All responses must be sent in writing to Ms. Genesika Carter via email to fkn7@cdc.gov using solicitation number 2016-Q-65118 in the subject line, no later than 12:00pm Eastern Time, May 28, 2016.
