- Description
- USDA, ARS, Temperate Tree Fruit and Vegetable Research Unit, Wapato, WA intends to award a sole source purchase order to EPG Systems, Dellenburg 12, 6703CJ Wageningen, The Netherlands for a basic EPG System. As far as we are aware, the Giga-8D Electrical Penetration Graph (EPG) system is only available from EPG Systems. The Electrical Penetration Graph (EPG) technique provides live visualization and recording of plant penetration by insects with piercing mouthparts, such as homopterans and thrips, and is needed to continue our ongoing entomological research at our USDA facility. The basic EPG System is comprised of a digital control unit, probes, swivel clamps, connection wires, insect wiring kit, 110 V AC power supply, and accessories. The USDA is looking to find other potential distributers of the mentioned item that can meet our need. If you carry a similar product please submit product specifications to the below contact for consideration. Our justification to award is in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 - Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. All inquiries on this action can be submitted in writing via email to james.harris2@ars.usda.gov NLT 25 August 2016 @ 3:00PM PST. All information shall be furnished at no cost or obligation to the Government.
