Description

This is a notice of intent, not a request for a quotation. A solicitation document will not be issued and quotations will not be requested. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a fixed price contract with one (1) twelve-month base year and three (3) twelve-month option periods to Becton, Dickinson, and Company (BD), Sparks, MD 21152 on a sole source basis. The purpose of this requirement is for BD to provide an Essential Service Plan for BD proprietary instruments and computer system currently located in the Department of Laboratory Medicine (DLM), Microbiology Service at the NIH Clinical Center (CC). The Microbiology Service within the DLM requires the establishment of a service agreement for the proprietary BD BACTEC FX, MGIT instruments, and the EPI NUC computer system. The instruments provide automated detection of pathogenic organisms in clinical patient specimens, and the generated results directly influence the treatment of patients in the CC. The intention of the comprehensive service agreement is to ensure that these instruments and the computer system continue to perform at their highest level to continue providing timely results to the patient care team. Because this requirement involves technology that is proprietary to BD, no other vendor can provide the service required for the BD BACTEC FX, MGIT instruments and EPI NUC computer system.
