The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) intends to issue a sole-source commercial services purchase order to JEOL USA, INC. located at 11 Dearborn Rd Peabody, Massachusetts 01960-3823.
An award is anticipated to be made using Simplified Acquisition Procedures under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) wherein the circumstances of the proposed contract action deem only one source reasonably available.
The FDA requires annual maintenance of a Jeol Jem 1400 Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). Market research has determined that only one source, JEOL USA, INC., is capable of providing the supplies and services required at the level of quality required because the supplies and services involved are unique and highly specialized. JEOL is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of the instrument that will be maintained under the resultant purchase order and JEOL does not authorize third party providers to provide maintenance services for their equipment.
This notice is not a request for competitive quotations. However, any party that believes it can meet this requirement as stated herein may submit a written capability statement that clearly supports and demonstrates their ability to perform the requirement.
Capability statements must be received by the response date and time of this notice. Submissions will be reviewed to determine if they can meet the requirement. A determination by the Government to compete this proposed award based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
It is anticipated that an award will be issued to JEOL USA, INC. within approximately fifteen (15) days after the response date of this notice unless the Government determines that any other entity has the capability to meet this requirement.
