Notice of Intent to Sole Source – Laboratory Equipment Relocation Services

The South Carolina Department of Public Health issued a sole‑source notice to procure laboratory equipment relocation services from Agilent Technologies. The work involves moving OEM laboratory instruments under manufacturer‑warranty conditions, preserving calibration, warranty, and service‑level agreements. Because the equipment manufacturers require certified technicians for relocation, Agilent is the only qualified source. The contract is valued at $123,018.20 and is tied to an existing contract (4400038655) for Laboratory Relocation Coordination & Moving Services. • Scope: Certified relocation of specialized laboratory instruments under warranty. • Sole‑source justification: Manufacturer‑mandated technician involvement; alternative vendors would void warranties. • Budget: Fixed‑price contract of $123,018.20 with no competitive bidding required.
