- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), intends to negotiation, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Apollo SciTech, LLC out of Neward, DE, for a new AS-C6L DIC analyzer instrument. ***The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) requirement that Apollo SciTech is the manufacturer of the AS-C6L DIC analyzer instrument and is the only instrument that will suit our needs. One other instrument was found that can analyze dissolved inorganic carbon in seawater samples (UIC�s CM140), however this unit is only capable of analyzing one sample at a time (compared to the AS-C6L�s 8 samples at a time) and its precision is lower than that of the AS-C6L unit (+/- 0.3% compared to +/- 0.1%, respectively). This machine is necessary for high accuracy and precision analysis of carbonate chemistry water samples as part of multiple funded projects, including a core component of the National Coral Reef Monitoring Program�s (NCRMP) climate pillar. Delivery of the units is by 5/1/2023. ***THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS AND NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE IS AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, FIRMS THAT BELIEVE THEY CAN FULLY MEET THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS MAY SUBMIT SUBSTANTIATING DOCUMENTATION IN WRITING TO THE IDENTIFIED POINT OF CONTACT WITHIN 15 DAYS AFTER PUBLICATION OF THIS SYNOPSIS. SUCH DOCUMENTATION WILL BE EVALUATED SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT TO CONDUCT THIS PROCUREMENT ON A COMPETITIVE BASIS. A DETERMINATION BY THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO CONDUCT A COMPETITIVE PROCUREMENT, BASED UPON RESPONSES TO THIS NOTICE, IS SOLELY WITHIN THE DISCRETION OF THE GOVERNMENT. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE IN RESPONSE TO THIS NOTICE.
