About this opportunity
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, intends to award a sole source purchase order to Hamamatsu Corp for the acquisition of a Hamamatsu NanoZoomer S360 scanner. This scanner is needed to offer state-of-the-art digital slide scanning of Brightfield slides, provide consistency between government and contract labs, and support NIEHS's increasing large project requests with scanning speeds of up to 82 slides per hour at 40x magnification. The order will include the scanner, installation, and up to 4 hours of training, to be delivered within 90 days.
This is not a set-aside acquisition, and NIEHS will solicit and negotiate directly with Hamamatsu Corp. No competitive proposals will be accepted unless an interested party demonstrates the ability to meet the requirement within 15 days. The applicable NAICS code is 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees. The PSC category is 6640-P (Laboratory Equipment And Supplies).
Notice text
This acquisition is for a Hamamatsu NanoZoomer S360 scanner, which is needed to offer state-of-the-art digital slide scanning of Brightfield slides, provide consistency between government and contract labs, and scan at a rate fast enough to support our increasing large project requests. The S360 would work seamlessly with our Hamamatsu S60 (which is a smaller scanner that can handle 60 slides in 3 hours, as well as handles our fluorescent scanning requests.) The optical and computed properties of digitalized tissue samples are often impacted by slide scanner differences, therefore having a single scanning manufacturer is necesary. The NanoZoomer S360 is able to scan 82 slides per hour at 40x magnification.
