Description

JOFOC Requisition #: 15-015277 Notice of Intent to Sole Source The National Institute of Health Office of Purchasing and Contracts intends to negotiate a base + 1 option year standing contract to ROCHE DIAGNOSTICS CORP., IN 46250 to provide a rental reagent package which includes the UltraView Universal Alk Phos Red Detection Kits and UltraView DAB IHC Detection Kits for which the government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 6.302-1. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 325413, and the size standard is 500 Employees This notice of intent to award is not a request for competitive quotations. Interested concerns capable of providing the same or similar products or services as described in this notice may submit a capability statement outlining their capabilities. No solicitation is available. Information received will be evaluated for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Capability Statements must be received within the time set forth in this synopsis to be considered by the Government. A determination to compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The following verbiage is directly from the Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC). The Department of Laboratory Medicine requires a rental reagent aggreement which includes the UltraView Universal Alk Phos Red Detection Kits and UltraView DAB IHC Detection Kits used in the Bone Marrow Research and Clinical Protocols to determine disease process and course of action for patients performed on existing instrumentation. These are the only supplies that will fit and authorized to be used into the testing instruments of the Roche/Ventana BenchMark Ultra, Nexus and Benchmark Special Stains instruments. (SN#311348, 311065, 311332, 311346, 51547, and 5110814) The proposed vendor, Roche Diagnostics, is the sole manufacturer, vendor, and service provider for the Ventana BenchMark Ultras, Nexus/BenchMark Special Stains Instrumentation. Roche does not give authorization for any third party resellers. Roche manufactures the only system of this type that has the capability to perform all of these testings to fit our patient population and protocols at the Clinical Center. Since only one supplier for existing instrumentation, Roche Diagnostics., will fit the instrumentation validations and requirements, any other supply or service could cause the cancellation of the protocol/delays in completion of the protocol. This would cause unwarranted expenditure/waste of very limited Government research funds. It is therefore deemed to be in the Government's best interest that these items are procured by Roche Diagnostics. Items to include Catalog Number Material Description 760-501 UltraView Universal Alk Phos Red Detection Kits 760-500 UltraView DAB IHC Detection Kits All responses are due to the Contract Specialist within 15 calendar days from the date of this synopsis.
