- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Fisher Scientific Company LLC for the Corning 96-well plates. The Corning 96-Well Cell Culture Multiwell Plates have a few attributes that are essential and unique in the poliovirus microneutralization assay, which will be the main use of these plates: The plates have a flat bottom, are sterile, and their surface has been treated to support adherent cell cultures. The exact dimensions of the plates are essential for the various robotic instruments use in the assay to function. Alteration of plate height, width, or beveling on the plate edges causes robotic instrumentation to fail to properly grasp the plate and impairs liquid handling. The plates are manufactured especially for our group to not include lids, which minimize labor cost associated with having to remove plate lids on individual plates. The plates have been validated to work with all the reagents used in the poliovirus microneutralization assay. Eppendorf Nunc 96 well plates have altered plate layouts on the edges and different plate height, which would hinder the high-throughput processing needed. Also, Eppendorf and Celltreat plates come with lids on individual plates, which would greatly increase the labor to perform the assay with these plates. This contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (SAP) and 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1).. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within fifteen (2) days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government.� A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government.� Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.� Any quotation/response should be emailed to contract specialist at Qrz9@cdc.gov by COB� 3 March, 2022.
