- Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract - FDA1149698A Description(s): AquaLab Vapor Sorption Analyzer: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) intends to make a sole source award to Decagon Devices, Inc. for an AquaLab Vapor Sorption Analyzer. The AquaLab Vapor Sorption Analyzer unit shall: (1) have a chilled-mirror dewpoint sensor that can measure water activity (aw) in the range of 0.030 to 0.950 with accuracy of ±0.005 aw and repeatability of ±0.003 aw; (2) have internal temperature control 15 to 60°C with temperature stability of ±0.1°C; (3) have capabilities of handling sample volume of 10 cc and sample weight range of 500 to 5,000 mg with mass resolution of ±0.1 mg; (4) be capable of producing dynamic dewpoint isotherms (DDI) and dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) isotherms; and (5) include moisture analysis software. These isotherms can be downloaded and used in conjunction with a moisture analyzer to provide moisture content and aw in a single measurement, which speeds analysis and reduces costs. The analyzer must adhere to the following electrical requirements: 110 V/1 PH, 60Hz. The unit must also be compatible with AquaLab Dew Point Moisture Analyzer 4TE DUO, AquaLab Dew Point Water Activity Meter 4TEV, and AquaLab TDL Tuneable Diode Laser Water Activity Meter with a Temperature Equilibrium Plate for seamless integration. The NAICS Code for this action is 334516. This procurement is made under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 and 10 U.S.C. 3304(c)(1) - only one responsible source. This is a notice of intent to issue this solicitation on a sole source basis. This notice of intent is not a solicitation for competitive proposals. Any other firms desiring consideration must fully identify their interest and capability to provide this item within 15 days to the point of contact identified below. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The projected award date is on or about August 26, 2015.
