About this file

This document is a sole source letter from DiaSorin Inc., the sole manufacturer and service provider of the LIAISON XL Analyzer, LIAISON XS Analyzer, and LIAISON QuantiFERON Software, as well as the sole supplier of the associated QuantiFERON TB Gold Plus reagents. The Idaho Department of Administration, Division of Purchasing, has published a notice of intent to approve a sole source authorization for the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare to purchase these automated instruments and consumables from DiaSorin. This sole source determination is based on DiaSorin's status as the only vendor qualified to provide these products.

The sole source authorization is for an indefinite period, as the letter does not specify a defined contract term or renewal options. Pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, funding sources, and other financial details are not provided in the document. The notice invites any interested vendor to file a challenge to this sole source procurement within five business days of the closing date.
