- Description
- NAICS Code: 334516 The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Research and Development (ORD), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Panalytical X-Ray for the repair and software upgrade of a Panalytical Fluorescence Spectrometer. The repair and upgrade will require supply parts from the manufacturer (Panalytical) such as the X-Ray tube, lamps, power supply fan, and screens. It will also require the services of the company installer to place them inside the XRF and test them. After the repair is complete, the XRF must be calibrated and the new software package installed with the training necessary to run the XRF. US EPA believes that only Panalytical can provide to the government new parts for the PW2404 X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer and have a factory repairman install them. They are the only contractor that can provide a licensed copy of the Super Q (operating system for the PW2404) upgrade which comes with the IQ standardless analysis software imbedded. However, any firm believing itself capable of meeting EPA's requirement may submit technical documentation to establish the potential of complying with the specifications. Such documentation must be submitted to the point of contact within 15 days of the posting of this notice. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered only for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed on a sole source basis. The applicable NAICS code is 334516. Please submit your request in writing to Courtney Whiting by e-mail to whiting.courtney@epa.gov. No telephone requests or request by fax will be honored.
