VII. Justification for other than Full and Open Competition

☒41 USC 253(c)(1) and FAR Part 13.106-1(b): Brand Name
☐41 USC 501 and FAR Part 8.405-6: Federal Supply Schedule (FSS), limited competition Brand Name

The requested ThermoFisher items have historical applications and have already proven to be effective with our specific biological candidates, are currently under the lab’s Cell Culture Development SOPs. Additionally, the instrument for which these supplies are being requested are currently in use at the GMP Pilot plant and are currently validated in their process. Attempts to modify the items the VPP utilizes in the development of the next generation vaccine and or therapeutics would result in the pilot plant having to retool and then revalidated existing materials at the pilot plant. This would then cause significant (greater than 12 months) delays in the VRC’s program goals.
