- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Precision Flow Technologies of Saugerties, NY, for the acquisition of Sensors to an existing Toxic Gas Monitoring System, to be used in the Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland. ***NIST cites FAR 6.302-1(a)(ii)(A) and (B) (see excerpt below) as primary rationale for Sole Source Determination. (ii) Supplies may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of a follow-on contract for the continued development or production of a major system or highly specialized equipment, including major components thereof, when it is likely that award to any other source would result in - (A) Substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, or (B) Unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. (See 10 U.S.C.2304(d)(1)(B) or U.S.C.253(d)(1)(B). ***** Sole source determination is based on the need for additional Sensors and an upgrade to an existing Toxic Gas Monitoring System. The required sensors need to be compatible with an existing hardware and software. Precision Flow Technologies is the only known vendor capable of providing the required Sensors and Upgrade.. ***Delivery shall be FOB DESTINATION and be completed in accordance with the Contractor's commercial schedule. *** *****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516. ******A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition 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. *****No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, responses received by January 18, 2011 will be considered by the Government.
