POP: 11/01/2023 � 03/31/2024 The Research and Technologies Section, Electron Microscopy Unit, supports all of the NIAID intramural Montana and Bethesda, Maryland area labs using various microscopy methods. The Gatan Solarus 1067 is in continuous use at its location at Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, MT.

The purchase of this service agreement will ensure continuous OEM Gatan Solarus service, parts and support functions are uninterrupted. The statutory authority for this sole source requirement is 41 U.S.C. 1901 (e) (1) as implemented by FAR 13.106-1 only one responsible source and no other supply of service will satisfy agency requirements. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL.� All responsible sources that could provide comparable services may submit a capability statement proving they meet all the specifications outlined via email (subject line to reference NOI-NIAID-24-2164966) to Dana Monroe at dana.monroe@nih.gov, by Monday, October 23, 2023 by 5:00pm eastern time.
