- Description
- The National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST), Acquisition Management Division, on behalf of the Analytical Chemistry Division, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis under the authority of FAR 13.106(b)(1), with Jasco Analytical Instruments of Easton, MD for a High Pressure Liquid Chromatography Instrument. Sole source determination is based on the following: NIST currently utilizes Chromeleon software package to control and collect data for liquid chromatography instruments from various vendors. NIST?s purchase of the Jasco High Pressure Liquid Chromatography Instrument will provide an upgrade that ensures operation at higher pressures and provides a higher sample load than the existing equipment. Jasco is the sole manufacturer and distributor of their equipment in North America. Only Jasco?s equipment is 100 percent compatible with the existing Chromeleon software and Jasco?s equipment will not jeopardize the collection of the existing data. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, responses received by July 24, 2006 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition 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.
