Pipette Calibration

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) plans to award a sole source purchase order to Precision Pipette, located in Smyrna, Georgia, for the calibration and maintenance of pipettes. This procurement is authorized under FAR part 13.103-1 (SAP) and is justified by the fact that Precision Pipette is the only known source capable of providing these specialized services. The contract is set for an initial one-year period with four additional one-year option periods, allowing for up to five years of service coverage. The work will be performed primarily in Atlanta, Georgia, and the CDC Office of Acquisition Services, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, is managing the contract. This announcement is not a solicitation for competitive bids; however, other firms interested in providing these services are invited to notify the Contracting Officer within ten days of the posting date. Such notifications will be considered solely to determine whether a competitive procurement is necessary, but the government retains full discretion over whether to proceed with competition. All inquiries should be directed to Phil Alexander, with contact details provided for communication via fax or email. The associated solicitation number is 2026-92535, with a response deadline of March 15, 2026.
