The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a one-time sole source contract with Tecan U.S. Inc., 9401 Globe Center Drive, Morrisville, NC, 27560-6211. 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. The North American Classification System Code is 611420, Software Application Training; the size standard is 750 employees. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to award a non-competitive, sole source contract to Tecan U.S. Inc., 9401 Globe Center Drive, Morrisville, NC, 27560-6211 for EVOware Standard Software and Liquid Handling training on the Tecan workstations. Services are being procured under FAR 13.5, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The FBI collects DNA samples from Federal, Military and District of Columbia Convicted Offenders as outlined in the DNA Backlog Elimination Act of 2000, USA Patriot Act of 20001 and the Justice For All Act of 2004. In order to process the exponential increases in samples being submitted to the FBI, the program has Tecan robots online that have been validated for the automation process and other robots that are currently being validated. In order to begin using the new workstations, FBI personnel must be trained in the proper use of the software and maintenance of the workstations. Tecan will provide the necessary software application training needed for FBI personnel. Tecan is the only provider of the required training. Tecan is the sole manufacturer and provider of the robots used by the FBI which has complete and direct access to all manufacturer's technical specifications, instrument service manuals, schematics, and copyrighted and proprietary software.
