- Description
- PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY NOTICE THAT WILL BE PUBLISHED. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a one-time sole source contract with Life Technologies Corporation, 3175 Staley Rd., Grand Island NY 14072. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This notice will be distributed through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) Website (www.fedbizopps.gov). Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the FBO site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. The North American Classification System Code is 611430; the size standard is $11M. The FBI Laboratory Division (LD), Federal DNA Database (FDDU) has a need to procure multiple year training on GMIDX software and software updates for the analysis of FDDU database samples, 3500 Genetic Analyzers and equivalent instrumentation, COPAN punch instruments and Life Technologies reagents and kits. The FDDU analyzes DNA samples submitted from around the country, as required by the DNA Backlog Elimination Act of 2000, the USA Patriot Act of 2001, the DNA Fingerprint Act of 2005, and the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006. The DNA Fingerprint Act of 2005 and the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 broadened the scope of sample collections from just convicted federal offenders to include federal arrestees as well as non-US citizen detainees. Under those acts, federal agencies - to include the FBI- are directed by the US Attorney General to collect DNA samples from individuals who are arrested, facing charges convicted, or from non-United States persons who are detained under the authority of the United States. As a result, the LD FDDU has expanded its capabilities to better serve the forensic community and purchased the necessary instrumentation and successfully validated all related processes to support the scope expansion. In order to utilize the new technologies to their fullest potential, it is critical for the FDDU to train personnel on the new instrumentation and processes and efficiently process and analyze the volume of samples submitted to the unit on a regular basis. This requirement is for Life Technologies to provide several offsite and onsite courses through the current fiscal year, and potentially for the follow-on years if contract options are exercised. Market research has determined that the FDDU's requirements can only be met by the training curriculum offered by Life Technologies Corporation. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities to respond to this requirement or submit proposals to this office by 5:00PM EST, Thursday 15 June 2017, by e-mail to the attention of Eliana York, Contracting Officer, at eliana.york@ic.fbi.gov. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. Telephone requests will not be considered. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. A Justification and Approval (J&A) supporting this procurement is available upon request. Vendors must be registered in SAM effective 29 July, 2012, to be eligible to receive a Government contract. The FBI is utilizing a new financial system that has a direct interface with SAM. If any current FBI vendor data conflicts with SAM data, the information contained in SAM may override the Bureau current information. The Offeror's information in SAM must be updated and accurate, and shall include Tax ID#, EFT, DUNS#, address and contact information. The EFT banking information on file in SAM will be used to process payment to vendors.
