- Description
- Concerns having the ability to furnish the services described herein are requested to give written notification (including the telephone number for a point of contact) to the procuring office above within 10 calendar days from the date of this announcement. The U.S. Geological Survey, Kansas Water Science Center requires analysis of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and periphyton identification, cell counts, and biovolume in samples collected as part of a long-term monitoring project in Cheney Reservoir, Kansas and Johnson County, Kansas. Continuity in the identification in samples is imperative. Use of alternate vendors may lead to issues regarding data quality, continuity, comparability and interpretability. Consequences include compromised data sets, inability to publish data, inability to identify or interpret trends in long-term data sets, and timeliness of reports. The Government anticipates a purchase order for a base year and 4 option years, from December 20, 2011 through December 19, 2016. Based on the information at this time, the government considers the services specified as a sole source from the BSA Environmental Services, Inc., and proposes to negotiate a contract with the firm on that basis. However, should additional sources be identified, they will be considered. Firms who feel that they can furnish the required services are invited to submit in writing an affirmative response to this announcement, and such other materials which correspond to the required items stated herein. This information will be evaluated and used to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Since no solicitation document exists, request for such documents without accompanying information will be considered non-responsive to this request without further consideration. Affirmative response shall be received by this office by close of business December 20, 2011 by 3:00 P.M. Mountain Standard Time. This notice may represent the Governments only official notice of this procurement.
