Notice of Intent to Sole Source Requirement

The Department of Veterans Affairs, John D. Dingell VA Medical Center, NCO 10 Contracting Activity intends to negotiate a sole source contract under Simplified Acquisition Procedures and the authority of FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(B): Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services are unique or highly specialized. The associated NAICS code for this is 334510. The vendor will be ROCHE Diagnostics Corp, 9115 Hague Rd, PO BOX 50457, Indianapolis, IN 46250, Ph: 317-521-3086.

Description of requirements:

A dedicated workstation is used to run, analyze, and print assay results generated by the associated instrumentation. The instrumentation is composed of the Roche Cobas AmpliPrep, which is used to prepare the patient sample for further processing. The other piece of equipment is the Roche Cobas TaqMan 48 which does molecular polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of this material to generate viral load results.

The projected annual volume of test kits are as follows: HCV 32 kits (72 tests) and HIV 11 kits (48 tests). There are also routine consumables associated with the performance of these assays to include 31 system wash kits, 10 input tubes with barcodes, 7 k-tips, 10 specimen processing units and 3 k-tube.

This will be a base + 2 contract. The period of performance will be 12/18/2021 – 12/17/2024.

A firm fixed price BPA with option years is anticipated. It is the Government's belief that only the proposed candidate possesses the required capabilities to successfully meet this requirement. It is the Government's intention to solicit and negotiate with only this source.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. It is not a solicitation or request for offers. No solicitation package is available. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Responses must be received no later than 4:00 pm on Monday, December 13.
