- Description
- Sole Source Justification The Centers for Disease and Control and prevention (CDC) intends to award a sole source contract to the University of Manchester, England to provide a web application for viewing and recording of dental images on N3/HIPPA approved hosting platform. The statutory authority of this sole source acquisition is 48 CFR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The NAICS code for this procurement is 923120. The period of performance will be 12 months from the date of award. Fluorosis is a recognized side effect of excessive fluoride in the drinking water. Dental fluorosis testing isn't routinely performed in clinical studies within the U.S. It is imperative that an expert organization with sufficient experience and capacity perform this testing for the NHANES. The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of a novel imaging system to detect and quantify enamel fluorosis. The new system incorporates existing QLF and white polarized light technology into a single device. There are only 4 imaging systems that exist in the world and the University of Manchester is has developed all 4 of them. Only they can develop the web and training applications, and provide the clinical training and calibration. As a result, no competitive solicitation will be posted in FedBidOpps. We will issue onle one solicitation to University of Manchester; however, all responsible sources that believe they can meet these requirements may submit a capability statement to Christina Cusack via EMAIL ONLY at vfz7@cdc.gov with the solicitation number 2015-86053 referenced in the subject line NO LATER THAN September 3, 2015 to be considered by CDC. All requests must be in writing. TELEPHONE CALLS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. A determination by the goverment not to compete this proposed contract will be based on responses to this notice and are solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.
