- Description
- This notice announces the intent by the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) in support of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) to procure fifteen (15) Cytochrome p450 2d (Cyp2d) Knockout (KO) mice twice each quarter with the option for a third delivery of fifteen mice each quarter, for a total of five years (Base year with four option years) without competition as prescribed in FAR 13.106-1. Specifically, the Government will procure these mice from the producer Taconic Biosciences, Inc., 1 Hudson City Center, Hudson, NY, 12534. The Cyp2d Knockout Mouse was developed by Taconic Biosciences in collaboration with CXR Biosciences and carries a deletion of the cytochrome p450 (Cyp) 2d gene cluster including all 9 murine genes. Since the murine orthologue to Cyp2D6 is Cyp2d, the Taconic Cyp2d KO mouse model allows the WRAIR to study Cyp2d-dependent metabolism in a mouse model of malaria and then use data-driven hypotheses to design and test new antimalarial drugs. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this requirement is 112990 "All Other Animal Production" with a size standard of $0.75M. Proposed solicitation number: W81XWH-17-T-0347. This announcement fulfills the synopsis requirements under FAR 5.102(a)(6) and 5.203(a). USAMRAA intends to publish a solicitation no sooner than 15 days after publishing this synopsis. This Special Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive quotes. Information received in response to this notice will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether a competitive procurement is in the best interest of the Government. If no written responses are received by the date listed below, which reflects at least fifteen (15) days after the publication of this notice, the solicitation will be issued as brand name sole source only. All questions and responses concerning this notice shall be emailed to Jeffrey Sprecher at jeffrey.b.sprecher.civ@mail.mil. Interested concerns must identify their capability in writing to the above email address listed above no later than 4:00 PM ET, 28 July 2017.
