- Description
- The US Army TACOM Contracting Center intends to award a sole-source contract to Cannon Instrument Company, 2139 High Tech Road, State College, PA 16803 for the purchase of one (1) Cannon miniAV-LT Low Temperature Automatic Viscometer for testing viscosities of aviation turbine fuels at -20C in accordance with ASTM D 445, Standard Test Method for Kinematic Viscosity of Transparent and Opaque Liquids. Unit is required to include a capillary viscosity tube as defined in ASTM D 446, Standard Specifications and Operating Instructions for Glass Capillary Kinematic Viscometers. Unit must be able to perform analysis at -20C without the use of a recirculating bath. Unit must be compatible with other existing Government owned Cannon MiniAV equipment which operates using VISCPRO software. This is the only item capable of meeting the Governments needs due to the reduced size and volume of the viscosity tube bath, the compatibility of the instrument with current computer setup and solvent waste containers. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR Part 6.302-1, for other than full and open competition; only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, any proposals received within fifteen (15) days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract 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. Cannon Instrument Company is the only known source that can fulfill the Governments requirement. All qualified sources must respond not later than 17 Sep 2010, 4:00 PM EST. Responses should be emailed to Edyth McKinley at edyth.mckinley@us.army.mil. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 334513.
