- Description
- NAICS Code: 54 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plans to negotiate on a sole source basis with the University of South Florida to provide professional services for the project titled, "Development of Time Dependent Models." Negotiations shall be conducted pursuant to the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253 (c)(1), which allows for negotiation without full and open competition if there is only one responsible source. The basis for this determination is that the U.S. EPA-National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) in Research Triangle Park has a requirement to continue the development of effective statistical methods and to develop software that will make the task of benchmark analysis of neurobehavioral data more reliable. The University of South Florida is the only available source that can supply researchers that possess unique expertise and extensive experience analyzing neurotoxicity screening data, dose-response modeling, and benchmark dose computation and software development. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement by submitting documentation to Kimberli Irwin at the office identified above, by fax (513)487-2109 or by e-mail (irwin.kimberli@epa.gov) which establishes that their specifications meet the EPA's requirement. Documentation must be received within fifteen (15) days after the date of publication of this synopsis to be considered by the EPA. A determination by the EPA not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. See note 22.
