THE NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION’S (NOAA) OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH (OAR) ATLANTIC OCEANOGRAPHIC AND METEOROLOGICAL LABORATORY (AOML) INTENDS TO NEGOTIATE, ON A SOLE SOURCE BASIS, UNDER AUTHORITY OF FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), WITH LI-COR, INC LOCATED IN LINCOLN, NE FOR TRACE GAS ANALYZERS, PUMP REPLACEMENTS, INDIC SILICA GEL, AND REDUCED FLOW RATE KIT TO BE PERFORMED AT MIAMI, FL.

THE SOLE SOURCE DETERMINATION IS BASED ON NOAA’S REQUIREMENT THAT LI-COR, INC IS THE ONLY VENDOR THAT MANUFACTURES AND DISTRIBUTES TRACE GAS ANALYZERS, PUMP REPLACEMENTS, INDIC SILICA GEL, AND REDUCED FLOW RATE KIT.

THE INSTRUMENT (MODEL 8060) IS BUILT SPECIFICALLY TO INTEGRATE AND INTERFACE WITH THE LICOR LI-7815. ANY OTHER TRACE GAS ANALYZER OF COMPARABLE ACCURACY AND PRECISION WOULD NOT FIT IN THE INSTRUMENT WITHOUT SUBSTANTIAL MODIFICATIONS, IF AT ALL POSSIBLE.

**DELIVERY BY:** AUG 31, 2024 OR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

HOWEVER, FIRMS THAT BELIEVE THEY CAN FULLY MEET THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS MAY SUBMIT SUBSTANTIATING DOCUMENTATION IN WRITING TO THE IDENTIFIED POINT OF CONTACT WITHIN 15 DAYS AFTER PUBLICATION OF THIS SYNOPSIS.
