- Title: Notice of Intent to Sole Source - For a Body Composition System for NIEHS Description(s): The National Institute of Environmental Health Science (NIEHS) intends to award a Purchase Order to COSMED USA, Inc., 1850 Bates Avenue, Concord, CA 94520, for the purchase of a Bod Pod for the NIEHS, Research Triangle Park campus. The North American industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 334510 and the business size standard is 1,250 employees. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) IS AVAILABLE. It has been determined that COSMED USA, Inc. is the only known responsible source capable of providing the required product and no other services will satisfy the agency's requirements. The purpose of this Purchase Order is to obtain a Bod Pod Body Composition System which is an air displacement plethysmograph that uses whole-body densitometry to determine body composition (fat and fat-free mass) in adults and children, and can accommodate a wide range of populations. A full test requires only about 5 minutes, and provides highly accurate, safe, comfortable, and fast test results. Each BOD POD Gold Standard is a complete turnkey system with a dedicated computer system, the ability to measure thoracic gas volume (TGV), and data management capabilities. This notice of intent is not a solicitation or request for quotes. Notwithstanding, any firm that believes it is capable of meeting NIEHS' requirement, as stated herein, may submit their corporate capabilities, which, if received by the response date of this announcement, may be considered. Responses to this posting must be in writing and shall be emailed to Christopher Fisher at Christopher.fisher@nih.gov and are due by 1:00PM ET on July, 29, 2016 31, 2016. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future.
