About this file

Summary

This is a Direct Award Determination and Justification form from the West Virginia Department of Administration Purchasing Division for a maintenance contract with the West Virginia Department of Agriculture. The procurement seeks Applied Biosystems (AB) Assurance Plan maintenance services for laboratory equipment including two 7500 FAST Real Time PCR Systems, three Kingfisher Flex 96 DW Units, and four QuantStudio 5 PCR Systems used for rapid detection of high consequence diseases in animals. The solicitation number is CSSD 1400 AGR2600000001, issued on February 11, 2026, with a solicitation closing date of February 26, 2026. The contract will be performed at the Agriculture Department's Moorefield Field Office location and will cover a four-year term from February 7, 2026 through February 6, 2030. The maintenance services include one annual preventive maintenance visit per year, parts and labor for remedial repairs, guaranteed priority response time of two business days, telephone and email technical support, and remote monitoring and diagnostic services.

The total contract price is $289,454.90, with annual costs of $54,680.16 for year one, $74,394.26 for year two, $80,190.24 for year three, and $80,190.24 for year four. Life Technologies Corporation (applied through Thermo Fisher Scientific) is the sole source vendor, as the equipment requires proprietary data analysis software and service tools that only the manufacturer can access and maintain. The direct award is justified on the basis that the instruments are standardized by the National Veterinary Services Laboratory, maintenance is required to preserve the state's ISO 17025 accreditation and federal laboratory funding, and third-party service providers are strictly prohibited by manufacturer authorization. The poultry industry is identified as West Virginia's number one agriculture commodity, making rapid disease detection capabilities critical for economic protection and disease control.

Instrument Services Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions apply to instrument services purchased from Life Technologies Corporation (“we” “us” or “our”). If you purchase instrument services from other Thermo Fisher Scientific entities, different terms and conditions may apply. If you have any questions about our quotation, our ordering process, or what terms and conditions apply to your order, please call Customer Services at 1 800 955 6288.

As used in this document, “you” and “your” refer to our Instrument Services customer that appears on the Instrument Services quotation and/or any final Service Plan documents.

1. Contract Terms.

1.1 General Terms. These are the contract terms and conditions under which we sell, and/or provide, our Instrument Services to you (“Service Terms”), unless (i) we specifically designate other terms to apply to a specific service; or (ii) if you and we have entered into a valid, active, written agreement that expressly provides that its terms supersede and replace these Service Terms with respect to the services covered by the other agreement. Any additional or different terms and conditions that you may provide to us, are material alterations and we reject them. These Service Terms collectively with any quotation provided by us constitute the “Agreement.” Our offer to sell and/or perform Instrument Services is expressly limited to the terms of the Agreement. By ordering or requesting Instrument Services from us, you agree to accept and be bound by these Service Terms. The Agreement is the complete and exclusive contract between us with respect to your purchase of, or request for, Instrument Services.

1.2. Terms Conflict. If any conditions within the Agreement documents conflict with each other, we will give them the following order of precedence with the document listed first being given a higher order of priority: these Service Terms, the quotation, and, if you are buying a Service Plan, the service level description of the Service Plan.

1.3. When Agreement takes Effect. The Agreement between us is created when we accept your order or request, either by sending a written confirmation or by initiating performance of the Instrument Services.

2. Service Offerings.

2.1. Service Offerings. We offer repair, maintenance, relocation, recertification, training, qualification, and technical and application support services for your instruments and devices (collectively, “Instrument Services”).

2.2. Manufacturer Warranty Services. Some of our Instrument Services are provided as part of the limited instrument manufacturer warranty we offer you when you purchase our instrument.

2.3. Service Plans. We also provide post-manufacturer warranty maintenance and repair Instrument Services called “Service

Plans”. Descriptions of our Service Plans are available at http://www.thermofisher.com/instrumentservices.

2.4. Where we Perform Services. We perform most Instrument Services in your lab, but we may perform some Instrument Services for smaller instruments at one of our facilities.

3. Price.

3.1. Determining Price. For Instrument Services you purchase, the price is shown in our quotation to you. If we do not provide you with a quotation, the price will be the list price that applies to your country on the date we receive your order.

3.2. Taxes and Fees. Our prices do not include any taxes (including VAT), duties, levies or other government fees that may apply to your order. If they apply, it will be your responsibility to pay them. If we pay them, we will add them to your invoice. If you claim any exemption, upon request you must provide a valid, signed certificate or letter of exemption for each respective jurisdiction.

3.3. Discounts. If you receive a discount on a Service Plan, your discount is based on maintaining continuous coverage of the instrument during the effective period.

4. Payment Terms.

4.1. Payment Terms. Unless we indicate another period on our quotation, you must pay invoices within 30 days from the invoice date in the currency specified in our invoice. Each order is a separate transaction, and you may not setoff payments from one order against another.

4.2. Late Payment. If you are late in making payment, without affecting our other rights, we may suspend performance or cancel your contract, reject your future orders, and charge you a late-payment charge, from the due date until paid, at the rate of 1% per month (12% per year) or, if less, the maximum amount allowed by law. You agree to pay this late charge upon request.

4.3. Collection Costs. If we appoint a collection agency or an attorney to recover any unpaid amounts, you must pay, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all reasonable costs of collection, including all associated reasonable attorneys’ fees.

5.3. Scheduling. We will work with you to schedule Instrument Services at a time that is mutually convenient within the period stated in Section 5.1 above.

6. Decontamination and Safe Working Environment.

6.1. Decontamination Obligations. Before we perform Instrument Services on your instrument, you will fully decontaminate your instrument or its component of radioactive, biological, toxic or other dangerous materials or substances or any material and, if we request, you will submit to us an accurate and completed certificate of decontamination.

6.2. Moving Instrument. If we reasonably request, you agree to move your instrument to another location that we reasonably deem is safe for our employees to perform Instrument Services.

6.3. Biosafety Level-3 and 4 Laboratories. We do not service instruments in biosafety level-3 laboratories, unless we agree otherwise in writing in advance. There may be an additional charge and additional terms for Instrument Services in such facilities. We do not service instruments in biosafety level-4 laboratories.

7. Spare Parts.

7.1. Repair or Replace. We may repair or replace any parts of the instrument based on our reasonable professional judgment.

7.2. New, Used or Reconditioned Parts. We may use new, used, or reconditioned parts. All parts will have the same warranties as new parts. We may retain any replaced part as our property.

8.2. Instrument Recertification and/or Reinstatement. If your instrument has not been under our warranty or our Service Plan immediately prior to the time of your requested coverage, before we cover your instrument under a Service Plan, we may require instrument recertification and/or may charge you reinstatement. We will provide instrument recertification services on a time-and-materials basis. If applicable, the fees for any such recertification services will be estimated by us and approved by you in writing, in advance of our performance of recertification services.

8.3. No Coverage for Ancillary Equipment. Unless we stated otherwise in our quotation, our Service Plans cover only our instruments and do not include ancillary equipment even if we supplied it.

8.4. No Replacement of Consumables. Our Service Plans do not cover replacement of consumable products used on the instruments.

8.5. Exclusions. In addition to the above exclusions, our Service Plans do not cover replacement of parts or repairs needed for defects or damage resulting from (i) your neglect, carelessness, or misuse, for example, connecting the instrument to electrical services or other utilities not in accordance with the installation requirements for the instrument, using incompatible solvents or samples with the instrument, operating the instrument not in conformance with our instructions or specifications, or your improper or inadequate maintenance of the instrument; (ii) installation of software or use in combination with software or products that we did not supply or authorize;

(iii) modification, repair, service transfer to another location of the instrument that you or your employees, agents or an unauthorized contractor made; (iv) intrusive activity, including without limitation computer viruses, hackers or other unauthorized interactions with instrument or software that detrimentally affects normal operations; from acts of nature or accident; or (v) any defects or damage that we did not cause.

8.6. Terminating your Service Plan. Service Plans may be terminated in the following ways:

(A) Terminating for Any Reason. You or we may cancel your Service Plan by sending a written notice of termination to the other at least 30 days before effective date of termination.

(B) Terminating for Cause. We may immediately terminate a Service Plan if the instrument covered by the Service Plan is transferred to another location without our advance written consent, or we may adjust the cost of providing the Instrument Services at the new location provided you agree in writing to pay the new rate which may be higher.

http://www.thermofisher.com/instrumentservices

Effects of Termination. If a Service Plan is terminated by you under Section 8.6(A) or by us under Section 8.6(B), we will charge you for the total price of services actually performed and expenses actually and reasonably incurred in servicing the covered instrument under the underlying Service Plan from its effective date until the effective termination date, and the prorated price of the underlying Service Plan from its effective date until the effective termination date, plus 15% of the total price of the Service Plan, excluding all discounts with the total cost not to exceed the total price for the underlying Service Plan. We will credit you for any payment that you made to us in excess of this amount and you may use the credit toward future purchases from us of instruments, consumables or Service Plans. We do not provide cash refunds on account of the early cancellation of any Service Plan or other agreement for Instrument Services.

9. Limited Warranty for Instrument Services.

9.1. Limited Warranty. We warrant that the Instrument Services we provide to you will be in accordance with the generally accepted standards prevailing in the Instrument Service industry. You must make any claim for breach of this warranty within 90 days of the date the Instrument Services were performed and prior to any unauthorized repair, change, or modification has been made to any part of the instrument.

9.2. Exclusions. Our warranties do not apply to (i) your neglect, carelessness, or misuse, such as but not limited to, connecting the instrument to electrical services or other utilities not in accordance with the installation requirements for the instrument, using incompatible solvents or samples with the instrument, operating the instrument not in conformance with our instructions or specifications, or your improper or inadequate maintenance of the instrument; (ii) installation of software or use in combination with software or products that we did not supply or authorize; (iii) modification, repair, service transfer to another location of the instrument that you or your employees, agents or an unauthorized contractor made; (iv) intrusive activity, including without limitation computer viruses, hackers or other unauthorized interactions with instrument or software that detrimentally affects normal operations; from acts of nature or accident; or

(v) any defects or damage that we did not cause. ADDITIONALLY, ANY INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, SERVICE, RELOCATION OR ALTERATION TO OR OF, OR OTHER TAMPERING WITH, THE PRODUCTS PERFORMED BY ANY PERSON OR ENTITY OTHER THAN US WITHOUT OUR PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL, OR ANY USE OF REPLACEMENT PARTS WE HAVE NOT SUPPLIED, WILL IMMEDIATELY VOID AND CANCEL ALL WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THESE

INSTRUMENT SERVICES AND THE AFFECTED PRODUCTS.

9.3. Remedies. During the applicable warranty period only, for services not meeting our warranty, we agree, at our option to: (i) re-perform the defective Instrument Services, or (ii) refund to you the fee you paid to us for the defective Instrument Services, if applicable. This section states our entire liability for a valid warranty claim under the Agreement.

9.4. Limitations. OUR WARRANTIES EXTEND ONLY TO YOU, THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER, AND YOU CANNOT

TRANSFER THEM. WITH RESPECT TO INSTRUMENT SERVICES, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED, WE DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN, INCLUDING BUT NOT
