This acquisition is conducted under the procedures as prescribed in FAR subpart 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures at an amount not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. STATUTORY AUTHORITY This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures, Subpart 13.106-1 (b) (1), Soliciting from a single source and is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. Contracts awarded using FAR Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures are exempt from the requirements of FAR Part 6-Competition Requirements. GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Title: Wilson Wolf/ 62x G-Rex 500M-CS Gas Permeable Cell Culture Device. 2. Background Information: �The CCE is an AABB accredited cellular therapy laboratory whose central mission is to provide services to the NIH Institutes to support more than 50 intramural clinical trials. These services include (1) development, evaluation, and validation of investigational new drugs (INDs) for cellular therapies and (2) manufacture of cellular therapy products for approved clinical trials. The majority of these trials are early phase (I/II) trials not intended to result in the development of a commercial product. To provide these services, CCE operates a core facility for the manufacture, storage, and distribution of cellular therapy products. CCE manufactures cellular therapy products from more than 800 collections from patients or healthy donors per year. The products manufactured by the laboratory are used to treat NIH CC patients with cancer, hematological malignancies, marrow failure, genetic immune disorders and autoimmune diseases. All products are manufactured using good manufacturing practices (GMP). The NIH protocols are institutional review board (IRB) approved and in the case of INDs, approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of human subjects. Each subject must consent to participate in a NIH Clinical Research Study. 3. Purpose or Objective: CCE uses the G-Rex 500M-CS to grow sufficient quantities of T-cell Receptor transduced T-cells to treat malignant tumors patients.� To date, specific TCR�s endowed with enhanced therapeutic potential have been identified for the treatment of malignancies; however, these cells cannot be grown to achieve therapeutic use by conventional methods. Using the G-Rex culture flask supplied by Wilson Wolf, we can now readily grow sufficient quantities of these cells for therapeutic purposes. The GatheRex pump which we are requesting is the only system compatible with the Grex culture flasks and allows for the concentration and harvesting of the T-cells at the end of the culture.� Wilson Wolf is the only known system that can provide these quality cells for our cellular manufacturing. 4. Period of Performance: 7/1/21 � 6/30/22. CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS (SCOPE OF WORK) 1. The contractor will supply sufficient disposables to process approximately 20 cellular therapy products per year. � � � � � � � � � � 2.
