- Description
- PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY NOTICE THAT WILL BE PUBLISHED.� The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a one-time, sole source, firm-fixed price purchase order with DyeMansion to acquire the Powershot C. The Powershot C uses a large tumbler, large quantities of parts can be cleaned at one time as opposed to a single part at a time using conventional methods. Also, because the tumbler has a soft inner lining, delicate parts can also be cleaned without fear of damaging the delicate features.�� Market research was conducted by the Operational Engineering Support Unit (OESU) / Operational Technology Division and it was deemed that there is one other company that produces a similar product to the Powershot C. This is the Post Process DECI Duo. This machine uses a chemical rinse for cleaning the parts, and while it does work with SLS, it would not be ideal because of the powder sludge that would be formed as a byproduct. The Powershot C by product is nothing more than the powder and the small beads used for cleaning the part. This byproduct is easily vacuumed and disposed of. Also, the Powershot C's large tumble with soft inner liner is perfect for the cleaning of large quantities of parts. The DECI Duo does not have a similar feature. The chemical rinse may also cause part damage to the more delicate parts being produced. For these two reasons the Powershot C was selected as the machine that best met OESU's needs. No other products were found that performed these functions. Pricing for the Powershot C was obtained through an informal quote. Therefore, the recommended source for the purchase of the Powershot C is DyeMansion who is offering the Powershot C at a fair and reasonable price. This notice will be distributed solely through the SAM.gov website (www.SAM.gov).� Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the SAM.gov site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition.� The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 333249 � Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing; the size standard is 500 employees. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1.� This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement by contacting Diane F. Siani via email only at dfsiani@fbi.gov no later than 1:00 pm (Central) on Wednesday, August 18, 2021. �Responses sent via other means (i.e. via telephone call, facsimile transmission, etc.) will not be considered.� Information received will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement.� A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is at the discretion of the Government. Vendors must be registered in SAM, effective July 29, 2012, to receive government contracts.� The FBI utilizes a financial system that has a direct interface with the SAM.� Please ensure that your company�s SAM information is updated and accurate.� This includes: TIN, EFT, DUNs, addresses, and contact information.� The EFT banking information on file in SAM will be what the FBI uses to process payment to your organization.
