- Description
- Westinghouse Savannah River Company (WSRC), managing contractor of the Savannah River Site for the U.S. Department of Energy, is soliciting expressions of interest from companies wishing to obtain license rights to market and distribute the following technology to commercial customers. License rights may be granted on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. WSRC also may be available to assist in further research and development of the technology under a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) and/or may provide technical assistance during commercialization of the technology under a license agreement. The technology is a Rotating Drum Variable Depth Sampler which is designed to permit collection of undisturbed core samples of liquids, sludge, or silt. These samples can be taken from specific depths within the test material without mixing the material during deployment of the sampler. Additionally, it allows retrieval of the sample without any loss of the sample and seals the sample to eliminate cross contamination during withdrawal of the sampler from the materials under analysis. Any company interested in licensing this technology must respond with a letter of interest (may be submitted by email) no later than April 21, 2005, summarizing the company?s business and technical expertise and motivation for pursuing this opportunity. Qualified companies will be provided with further information on the technology. Such information may require an executed nondisclosure agreement. Respondents wishing to enter into negotiations for a license will be required to submit a business plan prior to licensee selection and negotiations. Company qualifications should include, but not be limited to, compatible product lines, sufficient manufacturing capacity, sound product develop plan, reasonable schedule for product launch, established distribution networks, evidence of sufficient financial resources for product development and launch. Questions and expressions of interest may be addressed to Dale K. Haas, telephone (803) 725-4185, fax: (803) 725-4988, email: dale.haas@srs.gov, or address: Westinghouse Savannah River Company, Building 773-41A, Room #238, Aiken, SC 29808. This is not a procurement; it is a request for parties interested in licensing opportunities only.
