The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:
Clemson University seeks to sole source a Malvern Panalytical NS300. Malvern Panalytical is the sole manufacturer of the NS300 and the company sells directly here in the US. They do not go through other distributors. There is another NS300 already on campus which will allow for parts to potentially be interchanged and for researchers to use either instrument to produce correlative data. In addition, data previously run on the older system can be imported into the newer system for future analysis to maintain continuity of research data. This cannot be accomplished on any other equipment from any other manufacturer. For these reasons, this is a sole source procurement.
Agency's justification for a sole source procurement may be viewed or immediately obtained at:
