About this opportunity

The EPA's Office of Applied Sciences and Environmental Solutions Branch has awarded contract 68HERW26P0278 to AB Sciex LLC for preventative maintenance and service of an AB Sciex X500R LC QToF mass spectrometer on a sole-source basis, with a one-year period of performance from August 1, 2026 to July 31, 2027.

The justification rests on AB Sciex being the only entity qualified to provide manufacturer-authorized service, repairs, and proprietary software support; awarding to any other vendor would void the instrument warranty and increase maintenance costs. Market research conducted under FAR Part 10 confirmed only one responsible source. The service contract includes guaranteed two business day onsite response for remedial repairs, one preventative maintenance visit annually, on-site troubleshooting and support, workflow telephone and online support during business hours, SCIEX Now Visual Assist Support, premium learning resource access, a 25 percent discount on fixed-priced services, and StatusScope access on compatible models. The Contracting Officer certified the anticipated price as fair and reasonable under commercial acquisition procedures. Authority cited is 41 USC 1901, with exemption from publicizing a solicitation notice under RFO FAR 5.201(b)(1). AB Sciex is located at 1201 Radio Rd, Redwood City, CA 94065-1217.
