- Description
- The US Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) intends to solicit and award a sole source, firm-fixed price contract, under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items, and FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP), under the sole source authority of FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b) for Gottingen Minipigs. The solicitation is W81XWH-13-T-0181. NAICS 112990/$0.75. Specialized Gottingen Minipigs are being procured and an award to any other source will result in substantial degradation of on-going research protocols and significant cost to the Government which will not be recoverable through competition. An award to Marshall BioResources, 5800 Lake Bluff Rd, North Rose, NY 14516, in amount of $18,500 for 12 Gottingen Minipigs. An option for an additional 20 Minipigs will be included in this award. Marshall BioResources, dba Marshall Farm Group, is the only North American vendor capable of fulfilling this requirement since they are the only licensed vendor by contract agreement with the University of Gottingen in Germany as the exclusive provider for the Gottingen Minipig. These Gottingen Minipigs will provide the single swine animal model for on-going research at MRICD. This is not a request for competitive proposals and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal or quotation, which will be considered by the Agency. No cost will be incurred by the Government for submittals in response to this notice. The Government will consider all responses received within 15 days of the publication of this notice. A determination by the Government not to compete this acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered exclusively for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Please direct questions, via email, to Jacklyn McGurk; sjacklyn.r.mcgurk.civ@mail.mil before the closing date of 10 MAY 2013 at 1100hrs EST. No telephone calls will be accepted.
