- Description
- NAICS Code: 334516 The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b), with Varian Inc. to provide a Gas Chromatograph Tandem Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS/MS) Ion Trap System. The current NAICS code is 334516. Based on the EPA's knowledge of the Gas Chromatograph Tandem Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS/MS) Ion Trap System minimum specifications needed for this requirement, there may be unique capabilities to particular contractors. Varian's Gas Chromatograph Tandem Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS/MS) Ion Trap System is unique in that it is the only commercially available instrument providing both internal and external ionization with MS/MS, in addition to liquid chemical ionization capabilities. These unique features are critical for the EPA in developing low level analytical methodology for the analysis of organic compounds including pesticides, PCBs, PBDEs, and other important emerging contaminates, including pharmaceuticals. However, any firm believing itself capable of meeting the EPA's requirement may submit technical documentation to establish the potential of complying with the specifications. Such documentation must be submitted to the point of contact within 15 days of the posting of this notice. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered only for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed on a sole source basis. The applicable NAICS code is 334516. Please submit your request in writing to Scott A. Fogle at fogle.scott@epa.gov or fax your request to (513) 487-2107. No telephone requests will be honored.
