- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source contract and is not a request for competitive proposals. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH) hereby announces its intent to award a sole source contract to PerkinElmer Health Sciences Inc., 710 Bridgeport Avenue, Shelton, CT 06484-4750 for the purchase of Empower 3 Chromatography Software and Computers. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) in accordance with FAR 6.302-1- only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirement. The NAICS code for this acquisition is 334516 - Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. The period of performance for this procurement is one 60-day base period. The purpose of this procurement is to purchase PerkinElmer's Empower 3 Chromatography Software and Computers. This version of the software has been modified by PerkinElmer to work specifically with PerkinElmer's ICP-MS instrumentation. The PerkinElmer version is the only version that will work with our laboratory's instrumentation. The Empower 3 software has been beta tested by our laboratory and determined to work for our chromatography needs. These computers are the only ones that the company will warranty and support because this version of Empower is designed specifically to work with their instruments and each PerkinElmer software application is tested and supported under a specific Windows Operating System and PC configuration. PerkinElmer can only warranty and support software functionality if the specific PC system is purchased from PerkinElmer and is tested by PerkinElmer to operate properly. There is no other company that can provide the required software to perform with our instrumentation. As a result of this synopsis, no competitive solicitation will be posted on FedBizOpps.com. We will issue only one solicitation to PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc. However, all responsible sources who believe they can meet these requirements may submit their capabilities/qualifications to Tonya S. Justice, Contracting Officer, via email to TJustice@cdc.gov NO LATER THAN 2:00 EST on August 19, 2016. Reference solicitation number 2016-Q-65267 in the subject line of the email. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action will be based on responses to this notice and is solely in the discretion of the Contracting Officer. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
