Camera System Maintenance and Optimization

The Naval Research Laboratory intends to award a sole source purchase order to ThermoFisher Scientific for Camera System Maintenance and Optimization under Simplified Acquisition Procedures as authorized by FAR Part 13.106-1(b), with the estimated value not exceeding the $250,000 threshold. This action is justified by the determination that only one responsible source exists capable of meeting the agency’s requirements, and no other supplies or services will suffice. The notice is not a solicitation, and no solicitation package is available; responses are accepted solely to assess whether competition could be advantageous, though no reimbursement is provided for costs incurred in submitting information. All correspondence must reference the Notice of Intent number N00173-26-Q-1301367200 and be submitted by the deadline of May 29, 2026, at 1700 hours. Performance will occur in Washington, DC, at the Naval Research Laboratory’s address, and while the general scope involves maintenance and optimization of camera systems, no detailed statement of work, delivery schedule, pricing, inspection criteria, or packaging requirements are specified in the notice. The procurement is non-competitive, with no formal evaluation factors, contract clauses, representations, certifications, or special requirements outlined, as the award is based solely on the government’s determination of a single qualified vendor. No contracting officer,COR, or payment details are provided, and the document serves only as a pre-award notice to inform potential sources and satisfy regulatory transparency requirements.
