- Description
- The Environmental Protection Agency intends to award a sole source contract to Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry Systems (BDIS), 2350 Qume Drive, San Jose, CA 95131 pursuant to 41 USC 253 (c)(1): Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The Environmental Protection Agency has a requirement for preventive maintenance agreement on the Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorter. This instrument is a FACS model Vantage with both an Enterprise and a Spectra laser attached. EPA believes this instrument is computer driven with software that is unique to BDIS and only BDIS can properly program the instrument and ensure the integrity of the existing instrument, associated attachments, and software. EPA anticipates the award of a fixed-price purchase order. The period of performance will be from August 26, 2005 through August 25, 2006. NAICS No. 811219 applies, with a size standard of $6M. The intent of this synopsis is to determine if any sources exist and, therefore, no RFP is available. All interested parties must respond within 15 days of this date of announcement. Interested parties who believe they are qualified to perform this effort shall: 1) include information on the proposed services which clearly support the requirement outlined above and; 2) provide itemized pricing that is sufficient to make a determination that competition is feasible. Response to this synopsis must be made in writing. Submit responses to US Environmental Protection Agency, RTP Procurement Operations Division (E105-02), Attn: Laconda Cannady, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711 for consideration by the Agency. No telephonic or faxed request will be honored. Responses must include detailed technical information and other technical literature demonstrating the ability to meet these requirements. If no affirmative responses are received within 15 days of this notice, the Government will proceed with the procurement of these services with BDIS.
