- Description
- The United States Geological Survey, Idaho National Laboratory Project Office of Idaho Falls, ID intends to make a non-competitive award to PRIME Laboratory at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana for the chemical preparation and Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) of ground water samples. The contract laboratory shall analyze 60 ground water samples (54 ground water samples, 3 replicate samples and 3 field blank samples). The data obtained under this procurement must be fully comparable with the data obtained under previous orders; therefore, laboratory continuity is very crucial. Purdue University's PRIME Laboratory possesses unique capabilities, which are: (1) the only commercial AMS laboratory in the United States capable of providing attocurie (10(-18)) per liter measurements of 129I in aqueous samples, (2) can provide comparable data to previous orders, and (3) acceptance criteria are 95% confidence that the analyses are within the above error tolerance. The period of performance shall be for one year from May 1, 2007 through April 30, 2008. The Government intends to award this requirement noncompetitively in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) and the procedures of FAR Part 12, entitled, "Acquisition of Commercial Items." Other interested concerns having the ability to furnish these services shall submit a capabilities statement to the Contract Specialist no later than the closing date of this announcement. All submissions will be evaluated to determine if competitive opportunities exist. If no competitive opportunities exist, request for quotation (RFQ ) 07WRQQ0035 will be made available to PRIME through the Government-wide Point of Entry (GPE) on or about 17 April 2007, IAW Far 5.102(a)(1). All responses must be in writing by facsimile to the Contract Specialist at (916) 278-9339 or by email to sklingler@usgs.gov. NAICS 541380 - Testing Laboratories
