About this opportunity
This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice is for the award of a sole source contract by the USDA Agricultural Research Service Field Research Implementation and Information Delivery Plains Area. The justification is for the procurement of 364 male calves with specific genotypic and phenotypic traits from the University of Nebraska for use at the USDA Agricultural Research Service facility in Clay Center, Nebraska. Due to biosafety concerns, the research facility does not allow animals from outside sources, and as the university herd is the only source that can supply animals to the location, a sole source award to an unknown vendor for an unknown amount was justified.
Notice text
Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) is attached.
For biosecurity reasons, USDA ARS USMARC in Clay Center, NE does not allow animals to be brought onto the Center from outside sources. The University of Nebraska has had a long term cooperative relationship with USMARC on the ARS owned property. This relationship is documented in ARS agreement number 58-3040-9-011. The university herd and the ARS herd are both on this property. As a result, the university animals are the only animals that can be supplied to ARS.
Awarded contract 12805B21P0046 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2021-01-29.
