The 628th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to Artisan Scientific Corporation (DBA Artisan Technology Group); 101 E Mercury Dr Ste 8, Champaign, Il, 61822-9390, United States. Market research was performed and information gathered in determining this company to be the only source for this requirement.

However, responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
