- Description
- Supply List This is a notice of intent, not a request for a quotation. A solicitation document will not be issued and quotations will not be requested. The National Institutes of Health, Clinical Center (CC) intends to award a one-year fixed price purchase order to Sebia, Norcross GA 30093-2991 on a sole source basis to procure specialized reagents and consumables for use on the existing government-owned Sebia GELSCAN, Sebia Hydrasys ® ½ Focusing, and Sebia PHORESIS TM GS instruments. This requirement is to provide reagents and consumables used in patient care for electrophoresis and immunofixation testing. The Sebia proteins are the only known reagents that will fit into the existing Department of Laboratory Medicine testing instruments without causing delay or possible inaccurate results. Sebia's products include an automated capillary electrophoresis system with capability for serum protein, urine, immunotyping, separation of hemoglobin variants, HR, and CDT. Procuring these items is imperative to meet the needs of the Chemistry Service as these products are sensitive and highly specific to its semi-automated agarose gel electrophoresis instrumentation. Sebia Inc. is the sole manufacturer and sole distributor of reagents to be used on any Sebia, electrophoresis system. The comprehensive system of instruments and consumables is necessary to produce a complete testing result. The necessary product list is attached and titled Schedule of Supplies. The exact quantity of products cannot be estimated at the time of award. The government reserves the right to increase quantities pursuant to FAR 52.217-6. The purchase order shall not exceed $150,000. This acquisition is being conducted using policies unique to the acquisition of commercial items prescribed in FAR Part 12, in conjunction with the policies and procedures for the competition requirements of Part 6. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities in response to this posting. The determination by the Government not to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Comments referencing this posting number may be submitted to the CC Office of Purchasing and Contracts, prior to the closing date specified in this announcement electronically to the attention of Malinda Dehner, Contract Specialist, dehnerm@cc.nih.gov by the due date and time marked in this notice.
