- Description
- The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) intends to contract using other than full and open competition for the purchase of a Thermal Desorption Unit (TDU). Accordingly, the TSA intends to award a contract to: Gerstel, Inc. 701 Digital Drive, Suite J Linthicum, MD 21090 This contract will address the requirements of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Office of Security Operations (OSO), and Explosives Operations Branch in operating testing equipment that used to breakdown chemical components of samples to determine exactly what sample consists of and identify complex chemical matrices. This instrument will attach to a specific Agilent Gas Chromatography system. The Gerstel ATEX Thermal Desorption Unit with Multi-Purpose Sampler will be used to assist TSA in the analysis of different sample types related to explosives investigations. Additionally, the TDU will assist with the ability to identify trace elements in material that were previously thought to have disintegrated beyond identification. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit quotes. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. 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 normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Interested vendors who may wish to seek subcontracting opportunities should contact the above named company directly.
