Description

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Airgas East in Linthicum, MD for the rental of Airgas East provided compressed gas cylinders for the period of date of award through December 31, 2008 with two one year options to renew. Sole source determination is based on gases being purchased, under a separate purchase order, from Airgas East. Gases are delivered in Airgas East owned cylinders and NIST is required to pay rental charges on these cylinders until the cylinders are returned. As Airgas East owns all cylinders, Airgas East is the sole source for this requirement. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 325120, and the size standard is 500 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by December 14, 2007. 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. Any questions or concerns regarding this notice of intent should be forwarded in writing to the Contracting Officer (Andrew Perry) via e-mail at andrew.perry@nist.gov before the response date referenced in this notice.
