- Description
- This is a notice of intent to solicit from a single source for the USGS Volcano Science Center. The US Geological Survey (USGS) intends to negotiate a purchase order with Tescan USA for a preventative maintenance renewal service contract. A contract is needed to maintain the instrument at factory specification because of the mechanical and electronic complexity of the Scanning Electron Spectrometer (SEM). The contract eliminates excessive down time due to malfunction and component failure. Preventive maintenance service, cleaning and tuning is performed annually for contract holders. Tescan USA is the manufacturer of our Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Tescan USA is the only company in the USA with factory trained service engineers for the Tescan SEMS and the manufacturer does not allow third party resale of its products. Tescan is the sole source or proprietary software required to operate and/or upgrade the software in the Tescan SEM. Award will be made in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b) and the procedures at FAR Part 12 entitled, Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 entitled, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The purpose of this notice is to satisfy the requirements of FAR Subpart 5.2. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. However, all responsible parties may submit a quotation by the closing date of this announcement which shall be considered by the agency. No solicitation will be issued. A determination not to compete this action based upon responses received is in the sole discretion of the Government. The NAICS code for this action is 811210, Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, Size Standard: $34M Responses or inquiries shall only be accepted through electronic mail addressed to cjfejarang@usgs.gov and must be uploaded and received in their entirety no later than February 28, 2024 at 12:00pm PST.
