Description
The Department of Commerce/National Institute of Standards and Technology intends to negotiate and award a purchase order on a sole source basis with Vernier Software & Technology, LLC, 13979 SW Millikan Way, Beaverton, OR 97005-2886. The Vernier LabQuest Middle School Science Deluxe Package is a hand-held stand-alone scientific laboratory interface with over 50 available sensors/probes including a motion deatector, pH sensor, voltage probe, stainless steel temperature probe, light sensor, dual-range force sensor, gas pressure sensor, hand-grip heart rate sensor, conductivity probe, and magnetic field sensor. NIST has purchased LabQuests for use by the teachers in the NIST Summer Institute for Middle School Science Teachers during the summers of 2007, and 2009, and needs to continue to purchase from the same source so that the new teachers coming into the program in summer 2010 will have the same equipment. Teachers from all four years of the Summer Institute meet together to learn new experiments and teach each other, and must all have the same equipment to make these interactions beneficial to all involved. The Vernier LabQuest Middle School Science Deluxe Package could not be found by any other sources; other companies sell the components in bits and pieces; and NIST must have the complete Vernier LabQuest Middle School Science Deluxe Package. The Government intends to solicit only this one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) because the Government has not identified any other source that can meet the requirements specified above. Interested concerns may identify their capabilities by submitting a capability statement that clearly and unambiguously demonstrates in written narrative format their ability to provide the Vernier LabQuest Middle School Science Deluxe Package. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. This notice is not a request for quotation. A determination by the Government whether to compete this proposed requirement is solely within the discretion of the Government.
