- Description
- The Naval Medical Research Center (NMRC), Silver Spring, MD, intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to BD Biosciences, 2350 Qume Drive, San Jose, CA 95131.� The proposed action is for the preventive maintenance and repairs/service of two Becton Dickinson (BD) flow cytometry instruments located in the WRAIR/NMRC Malaria Department Flow Cytometry Core Laboratory. The Government intends on awarding a Firm Fixed Price contract. The Naval Medical Research Center Malaria Department has a critical need to maintain their BD LSRFortessa (SN H64780000028) system, including the sapphire, red, green, violet, and UV lasers (SN NO-SERial-8258 through NO-SERIAL-8262) and the high throughput sampler (SN U30100198) collectively referred to herein as the LSRFortessa to remain fully operational with minimal downtime throughout FY20. Navy Operation and Maintenance Fiscal Year 2020 funds in the amount of $35,897.40 will be used to maintain these systems at full operation within manufacturer specifications. BD Biosciences are expert in the development, manufacture, and maintenance of these flow cytometry units. They have considerable effort and expertise into proper care of their machines, at considerable cost and time. Properly maintained equipment is critical to completing the mission. Therefore, BD is uniquely qualified and the only capable source to provide the required services meeting our key minimum requirements. This contract action is for preventive maintenance and repairs/service for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (SAP) and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within fifteen (15) calendar days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government. 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. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Any quotation/response should be emailed to Contract Specialist at wendy.m.drummon.civ@mail.mil by 11:00 AM ET on Aug 2, 2021.
