- Description
- Sole Source Justification Document The National Institute of Environmental Health Science (NIEHS) intends to award a Purchase Order to Timberlake Ventures, Inc. at 19943 Catamaran Ct., Cornelius, NC 28031-6220, for the purchase of ExPub Annual Internet Subscription renewal at NIEHS at the Research Triangle Park campus. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 519130 and the business size standard is 1,000 employees. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) IS AVAILABLE. It has been determined that Timberlake Ventures, Inc. is the only known responsible source capable of providing the required supplies and no other supplies will satisfy the agency's requirements. The purpose of this Purchase Order is to procure annual subscription renewal for ExPub, a database of content drawn from over 150 chemical and toxicology information sources (both free and licensed) that are searchable through one single portal. As part of DNTP's chemical assessment program, the researchers use ExPub to compile a comprehensive profile of what is already known about a nominated chemical. The type of information sought encompasses biochemical, physiological, reproductive, and toxicological effects; regulatory activities both in the US and Europe, TSCA testing submissions and chemical hazard data in the workplace, among others. Health & Safety uses ExPub to gather acute exposure, hazard response, and human toxicity data on chemicals used by NIEHS staff. 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 Teresa McCall at teresa.mccall@nih.gov and are due by 4:30PM ET on September 13, 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.
