- Description
- The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Acquisition Resource Management (OARM), Emergency Response Service Center (ERSC) on behalf of the EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) in Cincinnati, OH under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 6.302.1 intends to award a Sole Source Procurement to Life Technologies Corporation for the purchase of MULV Reverse Transcriptases and 12PAQ TAQ Gold 12X25OU BUFF II under NAICS 334516 to support the PIP2 project which develops several molecular methods to detect pathogenic viruses in water. The EPA understands that there are other vendors capable of providing the similar molecular agents as the ones aforementioned in this notice. It is also understood that each company makes a unique product such that switching vendors in the middle of the development phase would require each assay to be reoptimized. This would cause the EPA an additional significant investment of effort and reagents that would not le ad to scientific advancement. Therefore in an effort to maintain reagent consistency during assay development, it is in the best interest of the EPA to continue purchasing the aforementioned molecular reagents from the initial vendor. This notice is not a request for quote. This notice serves as an announcement to EPA's intent to award sole source. All concerns and questions can be emailed to the Contracting Officer at the following email address: scott.elaine@epa.gov no later than 12 noon EST, April 15, 2014. NO PHONE CALLS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
