- Description
- NASA/NSSC has a requirement for vendor support to irradiated samples and associated data files provided by NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center [GSFC][Click on the web link to access the Statement of Work (SOW)]. > NASA/NSSC intends to issue a sole source contract to Radiation Science and Engineering Center[RSEC], Pennsylvania State University under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). Competition is impractical as RSEC can irradiate samples to 4 MGy while maintaining liquid nitrogen temperatures. NASA/GSFC is not aware of any other gamma radiation facilities that provides this unique service in the United States. Furthermore, the samples are very fragile and cannot be delivered by mail services and the facility must be within driving distance of NASA/GSFC. > NASA/NSSC will be the procuring center for this effort. Shipping address is NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center, 8800 Greenbelt Road, Greenbelt, MD 20771. > The Government intends to acquire commercial items and services using the provisions, clauses and procedures prescribed in FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13. > The NAICS Code for this procurement is 541715. > Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort by email to Dorothy.s.baskin@nasa.gov not later than 11:59 a.m. Central Standard Time on Tuesday, April 24, 2018. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. > Oral communications ARE NOT acceptable in response to this notice. > NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
