- Description
- The National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Disease (NIDDK) has a requirement to procure Liquid Nitrogen Liquid Nitrogen of 99.998% purity on a continuing basis to two nitrogen bulk tanks on the NIH campus in Bethesda, MD. that has an auto-sensing level indicator which communicates with the Contractor via wireless telemetry. This system is necessary due to the highly variable rates of gas usage in the building. A 6000-gallon and a 3,000-gallon tank provide minimum fill of 1,650 gallons total per delivery and an estimated 171,600 gallons per year with approximately 1 or 2 deliveries per week. Delivery schedule is 11pm-7am to prevent the truck from hindering other, smaller vehicle traffic including freight deliveries and express deliveries by other vendors. Due to the possibility that access by tankers could be restricted during heightened security, it is necessary for the vendor to have a smaller vehicle that can be dispatched for emergency deliveries if the larger tanker cannot access the campus or provide a solution to address the situation. This solicitation is Set-Aside for Small Business. Interested vendors capable of furnishing the government with the products specified in this synopsis should request a copy of the Request for Quote (RFQ) 17-331.
