- Description
- The Department of Veteran Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Network Contracting Office 6, Hampton VA 23667, intends to negotiate a Sole Source Firm-Fixed Price Contract to Identify metabolites and metabolomic profiles for the Cooperative Studies Program Epidemiology Center - Durham. This is not a request for competitive offers and no solicitation is available. Market research has determined that this service is highly specialized and only available from a single source without an unacceptable delay or duplication of cost and no other type of services will satisfy agency requirements. Metabolon is the sole authorized service provider of metabolomic profiling of plasma samples for the Million Veteran Program (MVP) and it is essential that these samples be processed by the same vendor. The Government intends to award the contract with an effective date of 12/1/2023 to Metabolon, Inc. The period of performance for this request is 12/1/2023 through 11/30/2024 (12 months). This announcement is being issued for information purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation or request for competitive proposals. If a firm believes it is capable of meeting the Government's requirement, it may identify their interest and capability to the Contracting Officer by 11/24/2023 at 12:00 by contacting John Summers via e-mail at John.Summers2@va.gov. Telephone inquiries will not be accepted. Those interested firms must indicate whether they are large, small, small-disadvantaged, 8(a), SDVOSB, VOSB, or woman owned business and whether they are U.S. or foreign owned. Respondents who submit proprietary data shall clearly mark the data with appropriate markings. The Government will not pay for any information submitted as a result of this synopsis. This synopsis shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Government to acquire any products or services.
