- Description
- THIS IS A PUBLIC NOTICE.THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE. THIS PUBLIC NOTICE DOES NOT OBLIGATE THE GOVERNMENT TO ANY CONTRACT AWARD. THIS NOTICE IS INTENDED AS A FORECAST TO INFORM THE PUBLIC OF VARIOUS REQUIREMENTS THAT THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH ANTICIPATES AWARDING IN FISCAL YEAR 2018. THIS NOTICE IS INTENDED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND SHALL NOT COMMIT THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH) TO ISSUE A SOLICITATION FOR THESE REQUIREMENTS. The solicitation number for this acquisition is NIH-OLAO-OD3-SBSS-18-4777437. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding (1) the availability and capability of qualified small business sources; (2) whether they are small businesses; HUBZone small business; service disabled, veteran-owned small businesses; 8(a) small businesses; veteran-owned small businesses; woman-owned small businesses; or small disadvantaged businesses; and (3) their size classification relative to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for the proposed acquisition. Your responses to the information requested will assist the Government in determining the appropriate acquisition method, including whether a set-aside is possible. The Division of Veterinary Resources (DVR) maintains over 500,000 gross square feet of animal and research facilities involving numerous species of animals for biomedical research for the NIH community. The maintenance of a sanitized and or sterile environment for these research animals is an essential element in complying with the numerous regulations and standards for animal care and use programs. Animal facility personnel spend countless hours in sanitizing and decontaminating animal cages, racks and accessory equipment on a daily basis and those efforts are doubled following a disease outbreak. Cage and equipment sanitation must be performed on a regular basis and be a reliable safe operation for the staff and the animals. When working with non-human primates it is imperative that a tuberculocidal agent is utilized. The majority of disinfectants that are tuberculocidal are not made to be applied in bulk quantities. The few that can be applied in bulk quantities present safety hazards as they are very slippery and staff have fallen using these products. A Dry Fog Decontamination System is a chemical fogging system that penetrates all areas of the rooms and caging without left over residue or need to rinse. Independently, and not as an agent of the Government, the contractor shall furnish all the necessary services, qualified personnel, materials, equipment and maintenance not otherwise provided by the Government. If your organization is a small business and has the potential capacity to provide these contract items and/or services, please provide the following information: (1) Organization name, address, email address, web site address, and telephone number (2) size and type of ownership for the organization [i.e., small business, small disadvantage business, 8 (a) firm, etc]. Business experiences, sizes, types, and socioeconomic designations shall be included with the capability statements. Capability statements must be received by December 5, 2017 @ 12:00 p.m. EST. Electronic submissions only; anne.mineweaser@nih.gov.
