The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) as cited in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), "only one source [is] reasonably available," which states that, "For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold: (i) Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization), (ii) portion of the purchase specifies a particular brand-name item, the documentation in paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section only applies to the portion of the purchase requiring brand-name item. The documentation should state it is covering only the portion of the acquisition which is brand-name." This is a notice of intent and is not a request for competitive quotes or proposals. No solicitation is available. The National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID) has a requirement for the purchase of StakMax Plate Handling System, StakMax Baseplate, and MDC Stacker Magazine. The handling system base unit is necessary for use with the ELISA plate washers currently in use. No other plate stackers are compatible with the ELISA plate washer. Responsible sources that believe they possess the expertise and capabilities identified above are encouraged to submit to the Contracting Specialist within 2 business days from the posting date of this synopsis, their written capabilities statement, proposal or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. Please forward the capability statement and/or pricing information to Le Doan, Contract Specialist, Reference 2016-00616, via email ONLY at kuj3@cdc.gov. All vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to an award of a federal contract. The website is: www.sam.gov. The Government will review any/all capabilities statements and pricing information submitted and determine if other qualified sources do exist that could provide this requirement. Information received in response to this announcement will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination not to compete the described requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Federal Government.
