3-Sole Source 2026 State of Utah- UT Dept of Agriculture (1) (1).pdf

This is a Sole Source Letter from Peak Scientific Inc. to the State of Utah Department of Agriculture, dated April 15, 2026, supporting a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract Without Engaging in a Standard Procurement Process. The letter confirms that Peak Scientific Inc. is the exclusive provider for service, OEM parts, technical support, and contractual maintenance for all Peak Scientific gas generators throughout North America, including the Genius XE35 model (722010141) located at the Utah Department of Agriculture facility in Taylorsville. Peak Scientific Inc. does not authorize any other organizations within North America to service or maintain its laboratory gas generators, establishing the sole source justification for the procurement.

The State of Utah Department of Agriculture is pursuing a sole source contract award for equipment maintenance services on the nitrogen generator without engaging in competitive procurement, citing the existence of only one source for the required services and parts. This determination aligns with the Utah Procurement Code, which permits non-competitive awards when a single source exists for procurement items. The contact for this matter is Cameron Cheyne at the Utah Department of Agriculture (801-816-3838, ccheyne@utah.gov). Peak Scientific Inc., located in Westford, Massachusetts, is the sole qualified provider, and the contract award is contingent upon written determination by the Division of Purchasing that the sole source justification is valid.
