Notice of Intent to Award to a Single Source - Meridian Bioscience Breath ID Replacement (ongoing studies)
This is a Notice of Intent (NOI), not a request for proposal. The National Human Genome Research Institute intends to negotiate on an other-than-full-and-open competition basis with Meridian BioScience, 3471 River Hills Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45244, USA. for a Meridian Breath ID unit to replace an existing, malfunctioning unit in order to continue ongoing research studies and provide a 4-year extended warranty for the unit.
While this pre-solicitation does not constitute a solicitation, interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to satisfy this requirement. The Government understands that Merdian BioScience is the owner and developer of the required product currently being utilized by NHGRI per compatibility requirements.
