- Description
- The Department of Veterans Affairs, South Texas VA Medical Center intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, pursuant to FAR 6.302-1, with BD Biosciences for the BD Fortessa cytometer. The BD Fortessa, produced by BD Biosciences, is the only device of this kind with the patented octagon and trigon photomultiplier detector blocks utilized on all lasers. Other devices do not have the technology and sensitivity to expand into this range of color detection, which is critical with rare and extremely limited clinical patient samples. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any responsible source who believes it is capable of meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement to the contracting office no later than Thursday, September 1, 4:00, EST. Interest/capability statements may be sent to Lynn Portman at lynn.portman@va.gov. No telephone responses will be accepted. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
