About this file

This document is a synopsis notice of intent to sole source a maintenance agreement for histology equipment. The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences intends to negotiate solely with Tech One Biomedical to provide maintenance services for several microtomes, a cryostat, and Sakura embedding centers from February 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025. Tech One is considered the only responsible source as they employ factory-trained engineers certified to service the specialized equipment, which requires highly skilled maintenance beyond the one-year factory warranties. Interested parties were required to submit capability statements by January 12, 2024 to Chantal.cornelius@nih.gov to be considered for a competitive procurement, though the decision to compete is at the government's discretion. The synopsis provides contact information and lists the equipment models and serial numbers covered under the potential sole source agreement.
