About this opportunity

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Affinisep USA, LLC for AffiniMIP SPE NNAL MIP filter plates. Affinisep is the only company that produces an NNAL Molecular Imprinted Polymer (MIP) that meets the high recovery requirements for tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNA) method analysis. These MIP filter plates are critical consumable supplies necessary for the sample clean-up procedure and processing for all TSNA studies. The CDC is issuing this notice under the simplified acquisition procedures of FAR 13.106-1(b), and is seeking to determine if any other sources exist that can provide the required specialized filter plates.

This procurement is not set-aside. Affinisep USA, LLC is the incumbent and sole provider of these specialized filter plates, as the previous supplier (Sigma) has discontinued the product. The CDC has determined that Affinisep is the only reasonably available source. The place of performance will be in Atlanta, GA. The notice does not specify an estimated contract value or quantity, but states these plates are vital for the CDC's ongoing TSNA analysis.
