- THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE AND NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION. The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis and award a contract to PROMEGA CORPORATION (2800 Woods Hollow Road Madison, WI 53711) for the service of the Maxwell RSC 48 and MaxPrep instruments. This acquisition is being conducted using the procedures under Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Subpart 13.5, �Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items� in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1901. The FAR as supplemented by the Health and Human Services Acquisition Regulation (HHSAR) will be used to evaluate the quote and award this requirement. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 334516 �Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing� with a size standard of 1,000. The NIEHS is one (1) of 27 research institutes and centers that comprise the National Institutes of Health (NIH), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). This requirement supports the Molecular Genomics Core Laboratory. The Molecular Genomics Core Laboratory provides intramural researchers with access to cutting edge genotyping, microarray, Nanostring, nucleic acid isolation, and sequencing services. The core strives to support this work with technical and bioinformatics components for every project. This service contract serves to maintain current working status, on-site visits for repair when necessary and software upgrades as needed. Promega is the sole source for the licensed selling, maintenance, and care of its Maxwell RSC 48 and MaxPrep instruments. This is NOT a solicitation for quotations, quotation abstracts, or a request for competitive quotations; however, all responses received within 3 days from the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. Responses must clearly and thoroughly defend any claims or assertions that attempt to refute the science above. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely with the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. If no affirmative responses are received within 3 days of this notice to determine whether a qualified source is more advantageous to the Government, a contract will be issued to PROMEGA CORPORATION. There is no solicitation package available. The Contracting Officer for this requirement is Ms. Beth Kuhaneck. All questions or concerns relating to this notice shall be submitted by email to ejinwaemeonu.okeagu@nih.gov.
