About this opportunity

The Environmental Protection Agency Office of Acquisition Management has issued a Special Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source purchase order for an Agilent 8890 GC-FID system. This procurement is classified under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance and PSC code 6630 for Chemical Analysis Instruments. The notice was posted on July 24, 2025, with responses due by August 1, 2025. The procurement is set aside as an 8(a) Sole Source award, indicating it is designated for small disadvantaged businesses under the SBA's 8(a) Business Development Program. The EPA intends to award this firm fixed price purchase order directly to Agilent Technologies.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of EPA's intent to proceed with a sole source procurement rather than conduct a competitive bidding process. The statutory authority cited is FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which allows for sole source awards under simplified acquisition procedures when only one source is capable of providing the required commercial services. This is explicitly not a request for competitive quotes, and contractors should not submit proposals in response to this notice. The procurement involves commercial services related to the GC-FID system, with detailed specifications and requirements referenced in an attached Performance Work Statement. Only Agilent Technologies is eligible to receive this award, as the EPA has determined them to be the sole source capable of meeting their specific analytical instrumentation requirements.
