- Description
- Sole Source Justification The USDA, Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA), Technical Services Division (TSD) intends to issue a sole source award using commercial and simplified acquisition procedures for a Perten Single Kernel Classification System Model 4100. This instrument is a patented and proprietary system that will be used to monitor Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS)-owned instruments in service at official inspection laboratories. To ensure standardization of testing wheat hardness world-wide, it is essential that FGIS uses the SKCS Turbo Model 4100 or its equivalent. However, no equivalent is known. The proposed contract will be for the purchase of one instrument with the option to purchase a second instrument by 12/31/2010. The proposed contract action is for products for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Numbered Note 22 applies. Any questions or inquiries must be mailed, e-mailed or faxed to the Contracting Office, to the attention of the point of contact listed in this notice. Requests by telephone will not be honored. Point of contact: Leah Schultz, Contracting Specialist, PHONE:( 612) 336-3625, FAX: (612) 336-3550, E-mail: leah.h.schultz@aphis.usda.gov.
