INTRODUCTION:
THIS IS A PRE-SOLICITATION NON-COMPETITIVE (NOTICE OF INTENT) SYNOPSIS TO AWARD A CONTRACT WITHOUT PROVIDING FOR FULL OR OPEN COMPETITION (INCLUDING BRAND-NAME).
The National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), Functional Genomics Lab (FGL), owns one (1) Sony SH800SFP Cell Sorter (S/N 314054). To ensure reliable operation, maintain manufacturer specifications, and protect system integrity, the instrument requires scheduled preventive maintenance and corrective service performed directly by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Sony Biotechnology.

NCATS seeks a 12-month maintenance and service agreement with the OEM.
