Sole Source Request to Purchase Gamma DAQ F/T Transducer and Associated Parts

The Mississippi State University is seeking to purchase a Gamma DAQ F/T Transducer and associated parts as a sole source purchase. The department already has multiple ATI type load sensors from the vendor, Novanta, and the current order is for a replacement sensor and associated parts as the original was damaged during testing. The estimated cost of the item is $10,343.03, and the department has previously contacted other entities for similar sensors but no other vendor could provide a sensor with the specified requirements. Some key points to consider are: • The purchase is for a replacement sensor and associated parts. • The department has previously worked with the vendor, Novanta. • The estimated cost of the item is $10,343.03. • The department has contacted other entities for similar sensors but none could provide a sensor with the specified requirements.
