- Description
- U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's National Exposure Research Laboratory, Microbiological and Chemical Exposure Assessment Research Division intends to award a sole source firm-fixed priced purchase order to Meridian Bioscience for the purchase of antigens and antibodies for the continuation and expansion of the human salivary antibody multiplex immunoassay in support of SSWR3.02, SSWR 6.02 and SHC 3.02 research. In order to maintain reproducibility and consistency in our studies the Government needs to continue using the same products from Meridian Bioscience to maintain integrity. The statutory authority for this proposed purchase order awarded without full and open competition is FAR subpart 6.302-1. When the supplies or services required by the agency are available from only one responsible source, or for DoD, NASA, and the Coast Guard, from only one or a limited number of responsible sources, and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, full and open competition need not be provided for. These antigens and antibodies will support SSWR3.02 and SSWR 6.02 research. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) IS AVAILABLE. Notwithstanding, any firm that believes it is capable of meeting EPA's requirement as stated herein may submit a capability statement, which if received within four (4) calendar days of the date of this announcement will be considered. Responses to this posting must be in writing and provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. A determination not to compete the proposed purchase order based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. All questions should be directed to Ron Bell at the link below. The point of contact for this procurment is Ron Bell, Contract Specialist, at Bell.ron@epa.gov NO PHONE CALLS PLEASE.
