Description

Notice of Intent to Sole Source to FEI Houston Company for FEI PerGeos 1.0 software maintenance renewal and two (2) floating licenses.

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 FEI Company to purchase the PerGeos 1.0 software maintenance renewal and two (2) floating licenses for the SEM and CT imaging for 2D and 3D visualizations because without this particular product NETL would not be achieving consistent data flows and changing to another product would jeopardize existing data and be incompatible for NETL’s needs.

The total estimated cost for all items noted above is $21,712.00.

This is considered a sole source to FEI Houston Company because, to the best of the NETL’s knowledge, based on market research conducted FEI Houston Company is the only known source that can provide this type of service. No known potential alternate sources exist which could satisfy NETL's requirement.

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 February 5, 2024.
