- Description
- NASA/GRC has a requirement for a service agreement for Bruker D8 x-ray diffraction instruments. NASA/GRC intends to purchase this service from BRUKER AXS INC, 5465 E CHERYL PKWY, MADISON, WI 53711-5373. The Bruker D8 x-ray diffraction instruments currently being used at our center were originally purchased from this vendor. Bruker Axs Inc., is manufacturer of the D8 x-ray diffraction instruments and only Brukers trained service personnel can properly service, align, and calibrate the intricate systems involved that provide the critical operational parameters and accurate analysis. No other vendor can provide this support. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12 and the Simplified Acquistion Procedures set forth in FAR Part 13. The Sole Source is under the authority of FAR reference 13.106-1(b)1. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on August 20, 2012. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
