The CYVAC is required to process submitted items of evidence for latent prints. The instrument combines both a large and small vacuum cyanoacrylate chamber in one unit so expedited cases with a single piece of evidence can be processed without wasting the supplies and energy required by the larger chamber. After researching various forensic based companies and conducting internet searches, no other vendors were found to have a unit that meets all the required specifications listed below: Atmospheric Cabinet Four discreet Cyanoacrylate chambers Entire cabinet heated to 37 ° C Each chamber to have heated cyanoacrylate-fuming system with provision for external exhaust. Tempered glass in the chamber doors. Each chamber to have its own re-circulating fan and switch. Vacuum System Chamber with at least a 16 ² opening and a 54 ² slide out drawer to hold evidence. Chamber to maintain a constant temperature of 37 ° C Cyanoacrylate accelerated to 82 ° C. Residual Cyanoacrylate vapor collector. Unit will have a centrally located control panel for temperature, inlet/outlet/purge valves, vacuum gauge, and recirculating pump. 304 stainless steel work surface and aircraft aluminum base with baked powder coated finish. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 500 Employees. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate directly with Payton Scientific. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. An award shall be made to Payton Scientific International. The anticipated award date is September 23, 2015. A Justification of Other than Full and Open Competition is available upon request. If an interested party believes it can meet the above requirement, it may submit a statement of capabilities. The statement of capabilities must be submitted in writing and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow the Government to determine if the party can supply the requirement. A determination to compete this action based on the responses received is at the sole discretion of the Government. All interested parties must express their interest and capabilities in writing via email to gary.r.robertson@cbp.dhs.gov.
