Extended Warranty and Preventive Maintenance Agreement

Description: The Department of Health and Human Services, through the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, announced a one-year procurement for extended warranty and comprehensive preventive maintenance of the government-owned Astrophysics XIS1517DV-200KV cargo X-ray inspection system at the NIEHS Central Receiving Facility in Durham, North Carolina. Coverage includes parts and labor, a scheduled preventive-maintenance inspection, an annual radiation-safety survey, telephone/remote/on-site technical support, corrective maintenance, calibration, and post-repair operational testing. The posting is a notice of intent rather than a request for quotations, relies on the manufacturer's specialized capabilities on a sole-source basis, and invites capability statements by 2:00 pm Eastern Time on Thursday, August 27, 2026; it is a federal procurement notice, not a grant.
