This notice is published in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) requiring the dissemination of information regarding proposed contract actions. This is a Notice of Intent to award a sole source Firm-Fixed Price purchase order under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements, and is not a request for competitive proposals. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) intends to award a firm-fixed priced, sole source, purchase order to Mediso USA, LLC, 2 Oliver Street, Suite 613, Boston, MA 02019. This is a new requirement to provide a 12-month service and maintenance package for a Mediso Multiscan LEFR150 (Large Field of view Extreme Resolution) Positive Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) in vivo imaging system. The Laboratory of Clinical Infectious Diseases (LCID) Tuberculosis Research Section (TRS) utilizes this highly technical and sensitive machine to monitor animal experiments. The LEFR PET/CT allows TRS researchers to make correlations with the results they are observing in Tuberculosis (TB) patients and provide context for the interpretation of human results using traceable animal models. It is critical that this imaging system maintains optimal functionality and repair and maintenance are performed in a timely manner. The required maintenance and support for this equipment includes: telephone support, remote troubleshooting, onsite repairs and emergency service, replacement parts, annual preventative maintenance site visit, and software upgrades. Product No. SER-LFER150-FC - Mediso Full Coverage Service Package. Period of performance is estimated February 1, 2018 - January 31, 2019.
