Contract Opportunity

Notice of Intent for award: The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service intends to award a sole source requirement to Revvity Health Sciences, Inc. for the purchase of a service agreement for Revvity Janus 8-tip, Janus 8-tip Platform with Gripper, and Victor Nivo Plate Reader. The service agreement includes phone support, parts, travel, labor, and a 10% discount for training. A yearly parts and maintenance visit by a service engineer is also included. This service capability is essential for keeping these technical and expensive machines in good working order to allow the Conservation Genetics Labor to continue efficient operations. The service agreement will be base plus three option years.

Revvity Health Sciences, Inc. formerly known as PerkinElmer, has proprietary rights to the Janus systems and is therefore the only source qualified to provide technical support of the instruments and supply the parts needed for continued support of these systems. Revvity factory trains its engineers and does not train outside sources on their equipment. Revvity does not distribute non-consumable parts or services to 3rd parties making it impossible for any other source to perform repairs and maintenance for continued support of this system. Consumable parts include syringes, valves, tips, etc. which are part of the general day-to-day operation of the instrument and are changeable. Non-consumable parts include pumps, circuit boards, etc. Revvity Health Scienes has been determined to be the only entity with the capability to provide specific maintenance services.

If you disagree with this sole source, you may submit your argument and a statement of capability for this requirement for consideration.

Responses are due no later than 08:00 AM EST on Friday, January 31, 2024.
