## Description

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to REVVITY HEALTH SCIENCES, INC., to obtain a Maintenance service agreement for the IVIS spectrophotometer. This is a service contract for an IVIS Spectrum CT, the hardware, firmware, and software associated with this instrument are all proprietary to Revvity and only they have the capability to support and upgrade this machine without voiding the manufacturer’s warranty.

It includes all preventative maintenance, repairs including labor and travel incurred during service calls. Dedicated phone staff for simple questions to offer customer-assisted repairs/troubleshooting that eliminates instrument downtime. Monitoring software that permits them to pull details of errors and troubleshoot virtually. No recertification fees. Repair requires parts that are exclusively manufactured by Revvity making it imperative to obtain these components directly from the source.
