- Description
- PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY NOTICE THAT WILL BE PUBLISHED. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a one-time, sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order with Thermo Electron Instruments to procure a 12 month service agreement to cover maintenance and repair on one Scientific Instruments, an Full Integrion system, including HPIC Pump, 6-port injection valve, 25& #956; L injection loop, 2L eluent bottle, one electrolytic power outlet (for suppressor), low-pressure eluent degasser, high pressure RFIC-EG degasser, and an additional two electrolytic power outlets (for eluent generation). Only this suggested source can furnish the requirement because the Laboratory Division (LD) requires familiarization and access to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts and software updates. Thermo Electron is the only company that can service the highly specialized Thermo Electron Element2 ICP-MS. To facilitate the acquisition of this service agreement, internet market research was conducted in an attempt to identify potential sources capable of providing the required services for these complex systems. In addition, RSU scientists, who use the instruments, attend scientific conferences where similar instruments are demonstrated by vendors. Their discussions with these vendors and routine liaison with a wide range of scientists who use this equipment indicate Thermo Electron North America is the only appropriate vendor to provide the required services. Thermo Electron North America is the parent company that manufactures these instruments and therefore is the most knowledgeable of the instruments and peripheral devices. Thermo Electron North America offers a variety of service plans to best meet the essential needs of each type of instrumentation to keep each system in top condition for dependable operation, minimizing down time. Thermo Electron North America is the only company that can provide all of the required service needs for all of the listed instrument systems and the associated peripheral devices. This notice will be distributed solely through the SAM.gov website. Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the SAM.gov site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334516 � Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interests and capability by responding to this requirement by contacting Travis Haefler via email only at thaefler@fbi.gov, no later than 12:00 pm (CST) on Monday, April 17, 2023. Responses sent via other means (i.e., via telephone call, facsimile transmission, etc.) will not be considered. Information received will be used solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is at the discretion of the Government. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), effective July 29, 2012, to receive government contracts. The FBI utilizes a financial system that has a direct interface with the SAM. Please ensure that your company�s SAM information is updated and accurate. This includes: TIN, EFT, DUNs, addresses, and contact information. The EFT banking information on file in SAM will be what the FBI uses to process payment to your organization. *Justification for this request will be made available upon request.
