- Description
- INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE XOS � X-Ray Optical Systems, Inc. � SS-CPS-21-100 The Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service) Division of Procurement Services, on behalf of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), intends to make award to X-Ray Optical Systems, Inc. (XOS), 15 Tech Valley Dr., East Greenbush, NY 12061, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 6.302-1, for one (1) HD Prime Analyzer. CPSC requires an additional HD Prime Analyzer to continue to analyze children�s products for Pb content and additional heavy metals. CPSC currently owns and operates a XOS HD Prime Analyzer and has used the XOS HDPRIME for over ten (10) years.� The XOS HDPRIME has shown to be extremely accurate and reliable. The XOS Prime HDXRF analyzer utilizes multiple monochromatic beams to determine lead in paint on a mass per unit mass basis (weight %). Other currently available X-ray fluorescence spectrometers are only able to measure lead in paint on a mass per unit area basis. The Laboratory Sciences Chemistry (LSC) Division routinely receives compliance samples for determination of CPSIA compliance with lead in paint limits (0.009 %, which is 90 ppm) and ASTM F963 determination of heavy metal content. NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE.� A request for more information, or a copy of the solicitation, will not be considered an affirmative response to this Special Notice.� Telephone responses or inquiries to this Special Notice will NOT be accepted. Fiscal Service will consider written responses received no later than 10:00 AM EST July 8, 2021.� Responses must be submitted electronically to purchasing@fiscal.treasury.gov, Attn: Ahlborn/Caplinger REF SS-CPS-21-100.� Vendor responses must include sufficient evidence that clearly shows the proposed product is capable of meeting all the characteristics of an HD Prime Analyzer. If no written response is received that clearly demonstrates an ability to meet all requirements and is received by the aforementioned deadline, Fiscal Service shall make award on a sole source basis to X-Ray Optical Services, Inc. (XOS) . Qualified contractors must provide the following: 1.

Microsoft Office compatible documents are acceptable. No other information regarding this Special Notice will be provided at this time.� � � This notice does not restrict the Government to an ultimate acquisition approach.� All firms responding to this notice are advised that their response is not a request that will be considered for contract award. �All interested parties will be required to respond to any resultant solicitation separately from their response to this notice, should one be issued.����������� ����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� ����������� ����������������������� �����������������������������������������������
