B01_Notice_of_Intent_to_Sole_source.doc

The United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA), Fort Detrick, MD intends to issue a sole source award to the Royal Thai Army. The services being provided are to maintain surveillance sites and surveillance monitoring systems for important pathogens that compromise force health protection (FHP), such as influenza, microbes that cause diarrhea, multidrug resistant organisms (MDRO), and malaria, at Royal Thai Army medical treatment facilities located in border provinces of Thailand. This notice of intent is for information purposes only. All sources eligible to provide this service must respond in writing. Responses must be supported with clear and convincing evidence to clearly articulate the ability to provide services outlined above. A request for documentation will not be considered as an affirmative response. If no responses are received, within 15 days after publication of this notice, to the effect that comparable services are available, and that it is more advantageous to the Government than obtaining these services through a sole-source contract, then a sole source acquisition award will be made. Response to this notice is to be sent to john.l.fitzsimmons8.civ@mail.mil
