Commodity or Contractual Service Required (commodity or United National Standard Products and Services Code (UNSPSC), manufacturer, model, and description, as appropriate):

78101804: Relocation services

Quantity or Term (as appropriate):

One time purchase

Requestor (division, bureau, office, individual, as appropriate):

Performance and/or Design Requirements (e.g. intended use, function or application, compatibility, requirements; reference to policy, rule, statute or other act of the Legislature, etc., as appropriate):

Pursuant to s. 943.325 Florida Statutes, the FDLE Regional Operations Centers throughout the state operate crime laboratories with the specific mission of investigating high profile criminal case work. To accomplish this, FDLE must utilize specific equipment and implements in the analysis of crime-related specimens.

FDLE currently owns AB Sciex Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) instrumentation and related equipment located at the OROC Crime laboratory. The OROC Crime Laboratory uses this equipment to process and analyze forensic evidence in order to provide toxicological detection and identification of drugs.

The FDLE OROC crime laboratory is in the process of relocating and must move AB Sciex equipment to accomplish the move.

Intended Single Source:

AB Sciex LLC 1201 Radio Rd Redwood City, CA 94065

Estimated Dollar Amount:

$80,000.00

Justification for single source acquisition (what is necessary and unique about the product, service or source; steps taken to confirm unavailability of competition, as appropriate):

FDLE must move the aforementioned instruments in a manner that protects the integrity of the equipment and ensures proper procedures are used during the de-installation and re-installation processes. mishandling of the instruments during the moving process could result in less than optimal and inefficient development of procedures to look for multiple drugs at one time as well as a delay in routine casework.

The relocation services must be provided by AB Sciex to ensure Sciex certified individuals de-install and re-install the FDLE owned equipment using Sciex confidential and proprietary tools and original equipment manufacturer spare parts. AB Sciex does not train, authorize, or certify third party service providers to perform relocation, maintenance, or preventative services on AB Sciex instruments. Therefore, the necessary relocation services are not available from any other source or vendor.

Approved By (names & titles, as appropriate, e.g., requestor, requestor management, information systems, budget, purchasing):

Julia Lycett, Chief of General Services Jason Bundy, Director of Forensic Services

Prospective vendors are requested to provide information regarding their ability to supply the commodities or contractual services described. If it is determined in writing by the agency, after reviewing any information received from prospective vendors, that the commodities or contractual services are available only from a single source, the agency shall provide notice of its intended decision to enter a single-source purchase contract in the manner specified in Rule 60A- 1.045, Florida Administrative Code, and section 120.57(3), F.S.
