Description

In accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), �only one source [is] reasonably available� which states that, �For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. (i) Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization). (ii) Where a single source is identified to provide a portion of a purchase because that portion of the purchase specifies a particular brand-name item, the documentation in paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section only applies to the portion of the purchase requiring brand-name item. The documentation should state it is covering only the portion of the acquisition which is brand- name.� What other products/services were considered and why did they not meet the need? There are no other combined capillary electrophoresis electrospray ionization instruments commercially available and fully compatible with AB Sciex mass spectrometers. AB Sciex, LLC is the only company that produces The CESI 8000 High Performance Separation-ESI Module. Program Office efforts to seek potential offerors: Several market research techniques were used to identify possible alternatives including queries of internet information sources, review of catalogs and product literature, discussions with colleagues and other scientists. No other instrumentation company provides a capillary electrophoresis electrospray ionization instrument that is fully compatible with AB Sciex mass spectrometers.
