Description: National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) plans to procure, on a sole source basis, with Bruker Biospin Corporation, 15 Fortune Drive, Manning Park, Billerica,5006, for an Accessory for Avance TM 600 [BH030703, ], Option # PH2316 CryoProbe ultra-high sensitivity NMR probe including: Triple Resonance Inverse Detection TCI CryoProbe, quantity = 1. This acquisition will be processed in accordance with Simplified Acquisition Procedures as stated in FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1). The North American Industry Classification System Code is 334516 and the business size standard is 500 employees. Only one award will be made as a result of this solicitation. This will be awarded as a firm-fixed price type contract. This TCI cryoprobe is needed to replace our old TXI cryoprobe which is starting to fail on a regular basis due to its age and now requires frequent repairs. It is critical that these cryoprobes function properly because they are essential for our ongoing research on small molecules, proteins, and protein-ligand interactions. In addition, these probes are in use at all times and need to be operational. Because this is a replacement part and must be compatible with the existing system, it must be provided by Bruker Biospin, the sole manufacturer and distributor. This is not a solicitation for competitive quotations. However, if any interested party believes they can meet the above requirement, they may submit a statement of capabilities. All information furnished must be in writing and must contain sufficient detail to allow the NIDDK to determine if it can meet the above unique specifications described herein. An original and one copy of the capability statement must be received in the NIDDK Acquisitions Branch on or before 11:30 AM EST on 07/29/2013. Electronic capability statements (via e-mail) will be accepted. All questions must be in writing and can be faxed to 301-480-4226 or emailed to Lisa Josephowitz, Contract Specialist, at josephol@mail.nih.gov. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract 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.

Please reference Solicitation Number NIHLM2013787 on all correspondences. Confidentiality - No proprietary, classified, confidential, or sensitive information should be included in your response.
