The statutory authority for this sole source acquisition is 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1) in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1 - only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirements. The NAICS code for this procurement is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing with a size standard of 500. The period of performance for this procurement is five (5) weeks. The Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons project aims to accurately and precisely measure metabolites of PAHs in human urine to quantify exposure. The large number of samples to run requires better automation of sample preparation, which is a rate determining step in sample analysis. An automated sample preparation system must perform the major analytical and sample handling steps in sample extraction and purification and must be able to handle samples in both 96-well plate and sample vial format to prepare samples in a shorter period of time. The lab currently has six Symbiosis online SPE-HPLC systems in personal care products laboratory and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons laboratory. Upgrades of the six systems from HPLC to UHPLC are necessary to fulfill the time constraints required by FDA. Spark Holland, Inc. is the only responsible source capable of meeting all of the Government's requirements. They are the only company that provides the upgrade of Symbiosis online SPE-HPLC systems to a Symbiosis online SPE-UHPLC systems. As a result of this synopsis, no competitive solicitation will be posted on FedBizOpps. We will issue only one solicitation to the Spark Holland. However, all responsible sources that believe they can meet these requirements may submit a capabilities statement to provide the services to Tessa Buffington via email ONLY at vsr3@cdc.gov with the solicitation number 2015-Q-17084 referenced in the subject line NO LATER THAN April 17, 2015.
