Rees Scientific Environmental Monitoring System Maintenance

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a Firm-Fixed-Price Purchase Order to Rees Scientific Corp for the maintenance of their environmental monitoring system. The system is currently installed at NIH and is used to monitor critical equipment in several Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) manufacturing facilities. The facilities produce cellular therapies for infusion into patients enrolled in clinical trials at the NIH. The monitoring system is required to ensure the safety and integrity of the products and to meet cGMP requirements. The service shall include calibration of all probes and preventative maintenance services that meet industry and regulatory agency standards. • The system monitors laboratory equipment, including freezers, refrigerators, and incubators. • The primary monitored parameters are temperature, CO2 levels, and cleanroom air pressures and humidity. • Approximately 333 sensors or "points" shall be verified and calibrated with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-traceable equipment. • The contract is for maintenance services, which may be ongoing.
