- Description
- THIS NOTICE IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases contemplates award of a firm-fixed-price sole source purchase order to BioAutomation Corporation, 3249 Story Road West, Irving, TX 75038-3532 for a maintenance agreement for three BioAuomation MM-12 and one BioAutomation MM-48 DNA synthesizers. The period of performance is expected to be 12 months. Due to the nature of the work being done with this equipment, it is imperative that the operation of these machines be maintained. Many of these instruments are used in the production of reagents used by the Laboratory Response Network at CDC to detect bio threats and various outbreaks worldwide. Therefore, it is critical that these systems be kept running with as little down time as possible. BioAutomation is the sole source for the MM-12 and MM-48 synthesizers. Therefore, its workers are fully trained in maintaining these instruments. Due to the need to minimize any down time with these machines, this training is invaluable. Furthermore, BioAutomation has a proven track record in providing the parts and labor needed to keep those machines running. The North American Industrial Classification Standards (NAICS) Code is 811219 with a small business size standard of $20.5 million. This acquisition will use sole source simplified procedures in accordance with FAR 13.106(b)(1). This requirement is not set aside for small businesses. CDC is not requesting competitive proposals and no solicitation is available. Interested parties who believe they possess the capabilities to satisfy this requirement should indicate their interest in writing and submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to meet this requirement no later than 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, on December 1, 2015. Determination not to compete this proposed action based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Respondents will assume all financial costs for preparing a response to this notice. The U.S. Government assumes no financial obligation for the preparation and distribution of prepared responses. Inquiries may be sent to Caleb Owen via email at xyl3@cdc.gov.
