This announcement constitutes the only solicitation (a written solicitation will not be issued) and quotes are being requested. The Solicitation number is RFQ-RML-B-2025383 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ) for Brand Name or Equal equipment. This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2020-06 May 06, 2020. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334516 - Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing with a small business size standard of 1000 employees. The requirement is being competed with a brand name restriction or equal, and without a small business set-aside. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) has a requirement for: Quantity 2 each of Sterilgard 604-WDU E, Biological Safety cabinet, model number SG604-WDU. Units must be configured with the following: Momentum Air Curtain: Cabinet creates a strong air barrier or air curtain that is 100 FPS (feet Per Minute) at the front opening of the cabinet, twice that of the 50 FPS over the work area. Strategic position of stainless-steel diffuser just below supply filter creates faster airflow at front of work area. Airflow over center of work surface is gentle at nominal 50 fpm resulting air curtain combines with high-velocity return air slots, aerodynamically contoured front-opening surfaces, and optimum air intake velocity to minimize turbulence and prevent migration of airborne contaminants into or out of work area. High-Velocity Return Air Slots Capture Unfiltered Air Containment and cleanliness are achieved with precise control of airflow volumes and velocities. A unique feature in the Baker cabinet design, the high-velocity return air slots have been proven to maximize the biological safety cabinet�s protective capabilities. Prevent contaminants from migrating up behind the viewscreen or around the side wall and escaping into operator�s environment. They Run the length of the viewscreen opening. Ready Safe Mode: Saves Energy cost by reducing airflow up to 30% when view screen is closed, while still maintaining clean air conditions to NSF 49 standards. UniPressure� Preflow air management system. Innovative telescoping plenum provides direct seal of HEPA filter to full perimeter of all metal plenums, simplifying filter changes and decontamination, while increasing uniformity of airflow through supply filter. StediFlow�: Automatic motor control system that automatically adjusts up to 250% filter loading offering optimal filter life (12-15 years) and motor blower reserve.� AC- VFD Motor blower:� unit comes with a AC-VFD Motor blower (Alternating Current 3 phase- Variable Frequency Drive) much less costly to repair/replace than competitive DC Motors. Cable Port on the right sidewall to run tubing or cables without blocking front air grill and to pass thru a double sidewall gasketed and with negative pressure.� . One piece stainless steel back wall work area with radiused corners for ease of cleaning; straight backwall and low?profile drain pan. Double wall, all metal, negative pressure plenums completely surround work area to prevent contaminated air from entering lab. Stainless Steel Air Bypass Armrest with Closed Cell Neoprene Pad. High visibility viewscreen slanted 10 degree from vertical; constructed of 1/4� safety plate glass (opens to 19?3/4� for equipment loading). HEPA supply and exhaust filters Integrated receptacle for waste disposal Flush-mounted cover Electric hydraulic lift system Adaptive ergonomic design combined with adjustable mobile lift for work surface heights of 22"" to 40 1/2"" 12in Sash Height Cradle Lift Prefilters Shielded Motor � � Place of Performance: NIH, 903 South 4th Street, Hamilton, MT 59840, United States.� FOB: Origination � The government intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order to the responsible contractor as a result of this RFQ that will include the terms and conditions set forth herein.� The award will be based on the following; technical capability to meet the requirements and price. � � The following FAR provisions apply to this acquisition: � FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors Commercial Items (March 2020) � FAR 52.212-3 Offerors Representations and Certifications - Commercial Items (March 2020) � FAR 52.204-7 System for Award Management (Oct 2018) � (Offerors must complete annual representations and certifications on-line at http://www.sam.gov/ in accordance with FAR 52.212-3 Offerors Representations and Certifications- Commercial Items (Please ensure 52.209-2 -- Prohibition on Contracting with Inverted Domestic Corporations--Representation.
