- Description
- NAICS Code: 334516 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA), under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Rules (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, intends to issue a sole source purchase order to Canberra Industries, Inc., for purchase of five (5) Lynx-Digital Signal Analyzers and three (3) Lynx-19? Rack Mount Kits. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE IS AVAILABLE. Currently, all instrumentation software utilized in the Las Vegas laboratory is developed and maintained by Canberra Industries. Multichannel Analyzer (MCA) units are specific to vendor software out-of-the-box. Using a different vendor?s MCA hardware would require new software to be purchased, installed and maintained separately. Training would also be required at a significant additional cost both in real dollars and in personnel hours. Per the Canberra Site-Wide Service Agreement #1343, any additional equipment purchased from Canberra is covered under the agreement for on-site repair and maintenance which is an additional cost savings. Notwithstanding, any firm who believes it is capable of meeting EPA's requirement as stated herein may submit a response, which if received within 1 calendar day of the date of this announcement, will be considered. Responses to this posting must be in writing. A determination not to compete the proposed Purchase Order based upon the responses is solely within the discretion of the Government. All questions should be directed to Trina Fisher via email to Fisher.Trina@epa.gov no later than 3:00 pm EST 1 calendar day after the date of this announcement. No telephone inquiries will be accepted.
