- Description
- The Navajo Area Indian Health Service (NAIHS), on behalf of Gallup Indian Medical Center located in Gallup, New Mexico intends to restrict competition and negotiate directly with Werfen USA LLC (UEI: JA87HT8KP2M2). Werfen USA LLC is the only source capable of fulfilling this requirement because the analyzer currently installed and operational at Gallup Indian Medical Center was provided under a capital lease arrangement with Werfen. Therefore, only Werfen can convert the remaining capital portion of the lease to a purchase. Additionally, Werfen is the only source for reagents compatible with this analyzer, as well as the repair and support services necessary to maintain its continued operation. The NAICS code is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing, with an associated small business size standard of 1,000 employees. The period of performance shall commence on the date of award and continue for a period of one (1) year. The simplified acquisition procedures at 12.102(a) will be utilized. This notice is not a solicitation or request for offers. Vendors capable of providing the stated services may submit a capability statement. Verbal responses will not be considered. Responses are due August 21, 2026 by 3:00 pm MDT. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A solicitation will not be issued. The point of contact for this action is Misty Billy, Contract Specialist and can be reached at misty.billy@ihs.gov.
