The contractor is responsible for installation, training, maintenance, calibration, preventive maintenance, safety testing, corrective repairs, lot-to-lot support, and full lifecycle service, with all costs—including ancillary equipment, middleware, UPS units, travel, and consumables—included in the CPRR pricing structure. Each site has a unique contract line item number with monthly billing based on a budgeted maximum, and a separate pricing list for reagents and controls is required.

This acquisition is being conducted under the authority of FAR 12.102 and 41 U.S.C. § 1901 and 1903, which permit noncompetitive procurement when only one source is capable of meeting the government's requirements. Although the procurement is designated as sole source, the government is inviting potential vendors to submit expressions of interest or proposals prior to the deadline to assess market capability, though no competition is guaranteed. The solicitation number is 0000HCNB-2026-98717, classified as a presolicitation under NAICS code 334516 for scientific and laboratory equipment manufacturing. The contract is managed by the CDC Office of Acquisition Services within the Department of Health and Human Services, with the performance location in Atlanta, Georgia.

Verdi G5 OPSLaser-Diode SystemThe Naval Research Laboratory intends to award a sole source purchase order to Coherent NA, Inc. for the Verdi G5 OPSLaser-Diode System, citing unusual and compelling urgency as the justification for bypassing competitive procedures. This procurement is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-1(b), with a value not exceeding the $350,000 threshold, and falls under NAICS code 334516 with a size standard of 1000 employees and FSC/PSC 6640. The requirement is exclusively for this specific laser system, as no other supplier or alternative product is deemed capable of meeting the agency’s needs. Public interest in competing for this contract may be expressed by the specified deadline, but responses must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government; failure to do so will result in no change to the planned sole source award. All correspondence must reference the Notice of Intent number and no costs incurred in submitting information will be reimbursed. The procurement is managed under the Department of Defense with point of contact Teigh Cheyney at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C.
