600 MHz Comprehensive Multi-Phase Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer
Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN)
An ACAN is a public notice indicating tothe 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.
Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), on behalf of its client, the Department of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada has requirement for the supply and deliver of one (1) Comprehensive Multi-Phase Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer. It is used to study the structure of molecules.
Any interested supplies must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that it meets the following Mandatory Requirements:
Mandatory Requirements
Magnet: Shielded 14.1 Tesla (1H operating frequency of 600 MHz) superconducting narrow bore Amplifiers: 1H - 300 Watt minimum pulse power X - 500 Watt minimum pulse power Y - 500 Watt minimum pulse power Gradient: 40 Gauss/cm minimum Automation: Sample Changer (24 sample minimum) for solution NMR including spinners Software: The system must supplied with acquisition and processing (1D, 2D, and 3D) software. Probes: A) Solution 10 mm broad band observe (31P - 15N minimum) with a single axis gradient. The probe must be tunable through automation. B) 4-mm gradient semi-solid high resolution magic angle spinning (HR-MAS) triple-resonance (1H/31P/13C) probe with a lock (2D) channel. It must able be able to perform triple resonance experiments (observe 1H, 31P, or 13C and simultaneously decouple the other two nuclei). It must be able to generate a gradient of at least 40 Gauss/cm (minimum) along the magic angle. Samples must be able to be changed without removal of the probe. C) 4-mm dual resonance (1H/X) MAS probe. It must tunable from 31P to 15N (minimum). Samples must be able to be changed without removal of the probe. D) 2.5-mm triple resonance (1H/X/Y) MAS probe. The X channel must tunable from 15N to 13C and the Y channel from 13C to 31P (minimal ranges). Samples must be able to be changed without removal of the probe.
Additional Accessories: - Variable Temperature Controller and accessories required for low temperature operation - Magic Angle Spinning Control unit (including spinning rate counter, stabilization and sample eject)
The procurement is subject to the following trade agreement: - World Trade Organization - Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP) - Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) - North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
The reason for single tendering is; only one firm is capable of performing the contract. The following exception to the Government Contact Regulations is invoked for this procurement under subsection 6(d)

Article XV.1(b) of WTO-AGP are applicable on the basis of limited tendering due to when, for works ofart or for reasons connected with protection of exclusive rights, such as patents or copyrights, or in the absence of competition for technical reasons, the products or services can be supplied only by a particular supplier and no reasonable alternativeor substitute exists;
The product must be delivered on or before March 31, 2016.
The estimated value of the contract is $1,350,000.00 HST extra
