The reason for this amendment is to change set aside from Sole Source to Open to Mettler-Toledo authorized reseller.  This is an administrative modification ONLY and NOT an intention to re-open the solicitation as sufficient competitive offers were received from the original posting.  THIS SOLICITATION WILL REMAIN CLOSED. 

Solicitation N00421-17-Q-0318 is issued as intent to sole source. The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed-price basis, and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase order on a sole source basis with Mettler-Toledo, under the authority implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) by FAR Part 12 and 13. Mettler-Toledo is the OEM and only known company that can furnish the product. This is a brand name 100 % match only! Substitute or similar product will not be accepted.

A non-competitive procurement is being requested due to the required logistics costs the Navy would incur to verify/certify a new model number(s) and incorporate the new model number(s) into NAVAIR METCAL Instrument Calibration Procedures (ICP). The model number(s) have been verified/certified for accuracy, drift, temperature correlation, voltage and power. Logistics support costs shall be considered in the overall cost to the Navy when introducing new model numbers.

***Basis for Award***

This notice is intent to Sole Source with Mettler-Toledo.

ONLY New Equipment, NO Remanufactured, and all items must be covered under the manufacturer's warranty. Similar or Substitute products will not be accepted.
