Description

THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES.� The USDA/ARS intends to award a Firm fixed price sole source contract under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), single source for purchase not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, to: Badger Meter Inc 6 Iron Bridge Drive Collegeville, PA 19426 610?917?0991 Description of Requirement:� The contractor shall provide a Water Quality Probe that has the capability to�measure NO3?N as well as additional water parameters including: organic carbon,�turbidity, and temperature. Measurements should be made via a single optical pathway to facilitate using a single�cleaning device. The probe must also show long term stability with minimal to no maintenance.�The sensor, software to drive it, and all data produced by it, must be compatible with sensors that are currently in use by scientists in our unit. More specifically, we need a multi?parameter water quality probe that matches our current in?house lineup of Spectrolyser V3 sensors produced by a scan.��The need for multiple single?parameter probes does not allow for a single probe capable of�measuring multiple parameters which allow for more accurate and consistent research measurements. Thus, one�utilizing one instrument versus multiple ultimately reduces the volatile efforts of employing multiple laboratory�equipment pieces creating the potential and likelihood for more inaccuracies within the diagnostic procedures. The NAICS code for the expected acquisition is 334516, with a Size Standard of 1000 employees and the PSC Code is 6640. NO solicitation or solicitation package will be issued.� This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes; however, interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement.� All information received by 2:00 PM Central Time on August 26, 2023 will be considered by the Government.� Responses shall be submitted to Melissa Grice at melissa.grice@usda.gov.� The e-mail subject line shall state:� Silverado - Notice of Intent to Sole Source.� A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.� NO TELEPHONE REQUESTS WILL BE HONORED.
