- Description
- ERDC - Environmental Laboratory (EL), Environmental Processes Branch (EPP) requires the means to monitor biological effects of chemicals and other stressors on microbes, insects, birds, and mammals.� To accurately monitor these effects, the development of novel machine learning approaches are required to improve the performance of quantitative toxicity prediction that will be used to predict effects of chemicals and other stressors. This is a follow on contract action for work that was previously performed by the University of Southern Mississippi (USM). For data validation and continuity, this service contract must awarded to USM which used proprietary algorithms for obtaining results. The previous results obtained under the original contract will be used to conduct the current research and the original algorithms must be used for data comparability and validation. The use of proprietary algorithms developed by USM is required and no other vendors are capable of providing these proprietary methods. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541714 - Research and Development in Biotechnology (except Nanobiotechnology), which has a size standard of 1,000 employees. This Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. Any interested party that believes they can fulfill this requirement should submit a capability statement to be reviewed. All submissions will be considered, however there is no guarantee that submissions in response to this notice will in any way alter the Government's acquisition strategy. Please provide responses to this notice NLT 5:00 PM EST, 2 MARCH 2020 to: Andrea.D.Knowles@usace.army.mil Telephone responses will not be accepted. Responses to this notice will not be considered as a response to any solicitation, a request to be added to a prospective offerors list, or to receive a copy of any solicitation. A determination by the Government not to compete the contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Note: In order to be eligible for award of a Government contract, vendors must be actively registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), have no active exclusions, and complete the FAR and DFARS representations and certifications. �
