- Description
- The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 22 located in Long Beach, CA intends to issue a sole source firm fixed price contract to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), 9500 Gilman Drive, San Diego, CA. 92093. UCSD will provide mouse cages and husbandry along with associated services for animals housed in the Stein Clinical Research Building vivarium in support of the VA San Diego Healthcare System Research Services Section. The animal care services are required in support of multiple VA Merit Research Projects. The researchers operate out of the Stein Clinical Research building and the nature of the research requires daily monitoring. The mice are subjected to experimental manipulations that require the investigator to remain with the mice for extended periods of time, and the specific equipment required for these studies is already stationed there. Transfer of animals to another facility would create undue delays in the research as well as create excessive distractions if researchers were required to commute from their offices to another animal care location. This procurement is being conducted in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1 and 13.106-1(b)(1), soliciting from a single source. The NAICS code utilized for this procurement is 611310 Colleges, Universities and Professional Schools with a Small Business Size Standard of $27.5 Million. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement and submit quotations no later than 1:00 P.M. PST, July 1, 2018 to: peter.kim33@va.gov. Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses received to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. This notice does not obligate the Government to award a contract or otherwise pay for the information provided in response to this notice. The Government reserves the right to use information provided by respondents for any purpose deemed necessary and legally appropriate. Any organization responding to this notice should ensure that its response is complete and sufficiently detailed to allow the Government to determine the organization's qualifications to perform the work. Respondents are advised that the Government is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt of the information received or provide feedback to respondents with respect to any information submitted. After a review of the responses received, a pre-solicitation synopsis and solicitation may be published in Federal Business Opportunities (FBO).
