About this opportunity

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Requirements, Capabilities, and Analysis Chemistry & Explosives Branch published this Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for a Crosslab Silver preventative maintenance agreement covering an Agilent Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS) Single Quad System. The justification for sole source procurement centers on Agilent Technologies Inc.'s exclusive access to proprietary components, diagnostic tools, and certified technician expertise required to maintain the equipment without compromising its sensitivity and performance for the mission-critical Canine Explosive Training Aid (CETA) program. Market research confirmed that third-party service providers lack access to genuine manufacturer replacement parts and specialized knowledge necessary to ensure proper system operations. The contract was awarded to Agilent Technologies Inc. under contract number GS-07F-0564X for a firm fixed-price value of $10,875.12 covering one base year from August 15, 2025 to August 14, 2026, with procurement being conducted under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The maintenance plan includes annual system inspection and cleaning, on-site repair visits, genuine Agilent service parts, and requires ISO 17025 certification.
