- Description
- Sole Source Justification 12-Q-0738131915 PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY NOTICE THAT WILL BE PUBLISHED. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a sole source contract with Life Technologies Corporation, 5791 Van Allen Way Carlsbad, CA 92008 for on-site support and instrument upgrades and associated training for the 3130XL. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This notice will be distributed solely through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) Website (www.fedbizopps.gov). Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the FBO site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. This contract will allow Life Technologies (Applied Biosystems) the manufacture of the 3130XL to upgrade from 5-dye Genetic Analyzer to a 6-dye Genetic Analyzer and provide the necessary services/training/support allowing the operation of the instrument and associated software for the 12 laboratories participating in the validation to expand the CODIS core loci project. Based on market research conducted and contacts made with knowledgeable individuals within the government and related industry, it has been determined the FBI's requirement can only be provided by Life Technologies, as no other vendor is capable of providing the necessary reagents and supplies needed for the assessment and validation to meet the FBI's requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement or submit proposals to this office by 12:00 pm, Eastern, on December 6, 2012, by email to the attention of Lynda M. Theisen, Contracting Officer, at Lynda.Theisen@ic.fbi.gov Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. Telephone requests will not be considered. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government
