A project the magnitude of
SNS requires consistent and common applications in many respective
areas among six different laboratories. One area requiring consistent
attention is in the area of standardized parts or products to avoid
redundant documentation justifying purchases while ensuring the
item meets the requirements of the SNS project. Therefore, items
appearing on the SNS standardization list are:
-
Determined to be the
only acceptable one for a particular application and will
not be substituted for without the specific approval of the
SNS standardization manager, or person responsible for approving
deviations to standard items. Approved
as technically accepted as the standard for the SNS project.
Further sole source documentation is not required by any
partner laboratory procuring parts from the SNS standardization
list.
-
Available from the
referenced sources on the standardization list at the prices
listed therein and does not require additional competition.
Such purchases shall be deemed to be competitive as a result
of action taken by SNS prior to placing an item on the standardization
list.
-
Suggestions to include
standardization items on the central SNS list will be
forwarded to the SNS Procurement Department and QA office
for consideration after review and concurrence by respective
division directors. For more information about purchasing
agreements, visit the DOE Integrated Contract Purchasing
Team (ICPT) web site at the following address:
