- Description
- NASA Ames Research Center (ARC) has a requirement for two environmental drosophila chamber/incubators, one each for the Fruit Fly Lab Phase Two Project and the Fruit Fly Lab mission FFL-02, which will be used for ground based experiments. The incubators will be used for drosophila studies under controlled temperature, humidity, and CO2 and O2 levels; and to study the potential changes in growth and the effects on development in fruit flies inside the hardware. NASA ARC intends to purchase the two environmental drosophila chamber/incubators, customized model GDR-36VL, from Geneva Scientific LLC, a small business, due to compatibility and consistency purposes. The Fruit Fly Lab currently has an existing unit that has been tested and proven to have the unique features that mimic International Space Station parameters. The chambers controllers meet the capability to control temperature, humidity, oxygen, and carbon dioxide levels and allow for remote monitoring and programming. The Government intends to acquire commercial items using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on November 29, 2015. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html.
