Notice of Intent - Conviron Growth Chamber

The Utah Valley University is issuing a Notice of Intent to purchase Conviron model GEN1000 growth chambers from Controlled Environments Inc. (Conviron). The university intends to negotiate and award the contract to Conviron as a sole source supplier. The justification for this sole source procurement is that the university already has multiple Conviron growth chambers in use, and having compatible chambers makes it easier to program, repair, and service them. The Conviron chamber has better temperature control, can be networked with other chambers, and has a more efficient use of space. • The contract is for the purchase of growth chambers, which is a one-time procurement. • The university is seeking responses from other potential suppliers to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement. • Responses should include clear and convincing documentation that demonstrates the capability of meeting or exceeding the requirements stated in the notice. • The deadline for responses is 12/22/2025 2:00 PM MST.
