## Description

Notice of Intent to Sole Source to Pfeiffer Vacuum Inc, Omnistar Gas Analysis System.

In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, the Department of Energy (DOE), National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) intends to negotiate and award a purchase order on a sole source basis to Pfeiffer Vacuum Inc for Benchtop Pfeiffer Vacuum Mass Spectrometer reactor because NETL is adding an additional Pfeiffer Vacuum OmniStar GSD 350 mass spectrometer for gas analysis at atmospheric pressure in the B14 ReACT Facility.

It is vital to have the same mass spectrometer to maintain consistency in their research results. This is considered a sole source to Pfeiffer Vacuum Inc because, to the best of the NETL’s knowledge, based on market research conducted Pfeiffer Vacuum Inc is the only known source that can provide this Benchtop Pfeiffer Vacuum Mass Spectrometer Reactor. No known potential alternate sources exist which could satisfy NETL's requirement. The total estimated cost for all items noted above is $70,550.00.

This notice of intent is not a request for quote/proposal. Any interested party that believes it is capable of meeting the NETL requirement described herein may identify themselves and must provide evidence of their capability to fulfill the requirement being requested by 13:00 ES on July 8, 2024. Responses must be submitted in writing to Shannon.Lynch@netl.doe.gov no later than the time and date noted above. Telephone responses and requests will not be received.

A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement
