The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award, on a sole source basis, a purchase order to TOMTEC INC, 1000 Sherman Ave, Hamden, CT 06514-1337. The purchase order is for the acquisition of Quadra 4 NS SPE instrument. The (CDC) reasonably believes that competition is impractical because of the following reasons:

1. The TOMTEC Quadra 4 is a semi automated system which has no equivalent due to its capability, and incorporation into several CDC response methods.
2. The TOMTEC Quadra 4 is unique because it can perform simplified solid phase extraction for microplate processing in a manner that other systems cannot.
3. The TOMTEC Quadra 4 is the only semi automated liquid handler that provides the ability to manually and semi automatically process liquid samples in a 96-well format.

The authority for sole source procurements is FAR part 6.302-1; only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals, however, any firm that believes it is capable of meeting, or exceeding the requirement as stated herein may submit a capabilities statement detailing their capability to include past performance information, which will be considered only if received by the Contracting Office by 11:59 p.m. eastern standard time on May 15, 2010. 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 purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Email capability statements and inquires to Russell Franklin by email to [email protected].
