Subject: AAALAC Accreditation for CFSAN Animal Research Care Program at the Muirkirk Complex, for a base year, plus 4 option years, totaling 5 years for the life of the contract. Notice of Intent to Sole Source to: - Association for Assessment and Accreditation Corp Inc. Pursuant to the authority of 41 USC 3304(a)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.302-1, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) intends to award a Sole Source firm-fixed price purchase order for a base year and 4 (one year) option years to the Association for Assessment and Accreditation Corp Inc., located at 5205 Chairman's Court, Suite 300, Frederick, MD 21703. The Food and Drug Administration requires all Center animal research programs to be accredited yearly by the Association for the Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care, International (AAALAC). This accreditation can only be provided by AAALAC, International, because there are no known alternative organizations that can provide the accreditation required for the animal research program. Therefore, FDA intends to sole source this requirement to the Association for Assessment and Accreditation Corp Inc. The NAICS Code is: 541990 All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. However, any party that believes it is capable of meeting this requirement as stated herein may submit a written capability statement that clearly supports and demonstrates their ability to perform the requirement. Capability statements must be received by the response date and time of this notice. Submissions will be reviewed to determine if they can meet the requirement. A determination by the Government to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. It is anticipated that an award will be issued to the Association for Assessment and Accreditation Corp Inc., within approximately fifteen (15) days after the date of this notice unless the Government determines that any other organization has the capacity to meet this requirement. Response Date: 12:00 p.m. EST 08/31/2017. Please email responses to Emmanuel Mbah at Emmanuel.mbah@fda.hhs.gov
