- Description
- The United States Army Medical Research Acquistion Activity (USAMRAA), Fort Detrick, MD intends to issue a sole source award utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures to Myriad RBM, Inc. to perform multi-analyte analyses on rat plasma provided by the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine (USARIEM). The contractor shall provide analyte identification services to support USARIEM protocol 12-20-AE: Nutritional Neuroprotection in Rats with mTBI, and will perform multiplex immunoassay analyses of 59 proteins and small molecules in USARIEM-provided rat plasma samples. This requirement will be procured in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The proposed contractor, Myriad RBM, is the only vendor that can perform the analysis of 59 analytes per sample. Myriad RBM is the world's leading multiplexed immunoassay testing laboratory, providing comprehensive protein biomarker services based on its Multi-Analyte Profiling technology platform. Other companies reserched for this rquirement provide kits; however, they cannot measure 59 different analytes in a small volume of serum or plasma (less than 100ul). This notice of intent is for information purposes only. All sources eligible to provide this service must respond in writing. Responses must be supported with clear and convincing evidence to clearly articulate the ability to provide services outlined above. A request for documentation will not be considered as an affirmative response. If no responses are received, within 15 days after publication of this notice, to the effect that comparable services are available, and that it is more advantageous to the Government than obtaining these services through a sole-source contract, then a sole source acquisition award will be made. Response to this notice is to be sent to Ms. Monica Pileggi at monica.pileggi@us.army.mil.
