    Advance Contract Award Notice – 15-22099 - OEM Warranty/ System for Research (SFR) Service Agreement

    An ACAN is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier.

    The purpose of this ACAN is to advertise to the supplier community that the NRC intends to negotiate and issue a service agreement for warranty and maintenance services to System for Research (SFR). System for Research is the Original Equipment Manufacturer of our Tecnai Titan (TEM) Microscope. There are no other suppliers that can offer a comprehensive service agreement to address the software, hardware and mechanical issues other than the original equipment manufacturer.

    Cost Estimate of the Proposed Contract: $100,000 – $600,000 CDN (Taxes are extra)

    Contract Term: One year contract, renewable each year (April 01 2016 to January 2017)

    Option to Renew: This posting will serve for the immediate requirement and serve for future contracts up to four years after the closing date of the ACAN. The National Research Council will include 4 optional one year periods to renew the service agreement at its sole discretion.

    Name and Address of Pre-Identified Supplier:
