- Description
- NAICS Code: 334516 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intends to negotiate a sole source procurement on or about August 5, 2002 with University Research Glass (URG), 116 S. Merritt Mill Road, Chapel Hill, NC 27516, for providing a Versatile Air Pollution Sampler (VAPS). The EPA is currently using identical equipment and any change in equipment at this time would jeopardize reproducibility and consistency of experiments. EPA believes that URG is the only source capable of providing the required item because URG is the sole manufacturer and distributor of VAPS. FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements" permits other than full and open competition. The intent of this notice is to determine if any other source(s) exist, and therefore, no solicitation (Request for Quotations) is available. All interested parties who believe they can provide the required item may respond by submitting a written narrative statement of capability for consideration by the agency within 15 days of this notice to: U.S. EPA, Attn: Barbara Nelson (E105-02), RTP Procurement Operations Division, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711. No telephonic requests will be honored. Response must include detailed technical information and other technical literature demonstrating the ability to satisfy this requirement. Responses shall also include itemized pricing that is sufficient to make a determination that competition is feasible. If no affirmative responses are received within 15 days of this notice to determine that competition is feasible, a purchase order will be placed with URG.
