About this file
This document is a Sole Source Justification for the purchase of 2 Thermo Scientific VisionMate HSX high speed 2D barcode plate readers (Model number 312850) and 2 VisionMate Linear Barcode Reader Accessories (Catalogue AB-1860), including the VisionMate Suite software. The Department of Commerce, NOAA Acquisition and Grants Office, requires these items to integrate with their Freezerworks Ascent Sample Management System in their Seattle, WA and Charleston, SC locations. The total estimated value is not provided. The justification states that the VisionMate system is the only brand that can integrate with the Freezerworks software, and no other similar products meet the agency's needs. A related Federal Contract Opportunity notice indicates this will be a sole source award under simplified acquisition procedures, with the associated NAICS code of 334516. The government is seeking capability statements from interested parties by July 10, 2024, but this is for informational purposes only and does not constitute a request for quotes.
