- Description
- The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Contracting and General Services in Falls Church, VA intends to award to JEOL USA, Inc., 11 Dearborn Road, Peabody, MA 01960 for new JEOL AccuTOF-DART to replace aging equipment. Since 2011 the National Fish and Wildlife Forensics Laboratory (Laboratory) has developed comprehensive databases, totaling over 1,000 species in 10,000+ samples, of endangered and protected timber using a JEOL AccuTOF DART mass spectrometer. The databases are essential for the analysis and criminal prosecution of CITES-listed and protected timber species. Currently there is no other way to the determine species source of heartwood timber. Other brands of mass spectrometers require an attachment called a Vapur interface that changes the spectra of the ion-molecule chemistry, rendering the data unusable. The proposed contract is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). All responsible sources may identify their interest and capability for this requirement by responding to this announcement. All proposals received within fifteen days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. 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.
