- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of Laboratory Sciences (DLS)-National Center for Environmental Health intends to award a sole source firm-fixed price purchase order to procure the TipNovus Tip Washer System from Grenova, LLC, 483 Southlake Blvd. Richmond VA, 23236. TipNovus is a high-throughput washing device that helps reduce the cost of laboratory consumables and waste disposal by sanitizing disposable pipet tips for reuse. The waste generated through expended tips poses as a contamination threat exposing employees to biological specimens and hazardous chemicals. Grenova's TipNovus will provide a solution for the waste of thousands of tips generated by DLS. The statutory authority for this sole source acquisition is U.S.C. 2304 (c) (1) in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1 only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirements. The NAICS code for this procurement is 423490 Other Professional Equipment andd Supplies Merchant Wholesalers with size standard of 500 employees. The Grenova Tip Novus Mini is the only 96 head tip washing system that is equipped to wash clear and black conductive pipette tips that are used in the laboratory. The Tip Novus Mini features four cleanig reagent feeds, high pressure wash, ultrasonic cleaning, tip agitation and UV sanitation for thorough pipette cleaning. The system is a stand alone unit so it can be used by multiple users throughout the laboratory. The high throughput washing device washes 20 tip rack per hour which enables the labs to wash and sanitize contaminated pipette tips in large quantities. Other washers can not prevent residue build-up on the pipette tips which leads to the pipettes losing their conductivity. The Grenova Tip Novus Mini is the only washer system that is acceptable in the laboratory based on its ability to clean the pipettes by not burning off the waste and leaving residue. No solicitation will be posted to FedBizOpps. This notice of intent is not a request for proposal. A determination by the government not to compete the proposed purchase order based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. Interested parties who believe they possess the capability to satisfy this requirement should submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to meet the requirement. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. All responses should be emailed to Mr. Philip Robinson at KKQ4@CDC.GOV using solicitation number 2016-Q-65426 in the subject line no later than 12:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, July 21, 2016.
