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 requires the purchase of a Foss NIRS D3, an instrument that is only available direct from the manufacturer. Clemson is conducting research on the use of visible and near-infrared reflectance to predict plant traits such as starch, protein, and carotenoid content. Because the range of the predictive signal varies the for traits of interest, Clemson requires a spectrometer that measures reflectance across the full visible and near-infrared range (400-2500nm). While other companies offer spectrometers that cover only part of this range, the Foss D3 utilizes silicon (Si) and lead sulfide detectors to measure reflectance on a spectral wavelength range of 400-2500 nm. Clemson is working in close collaboration with other research groups to measure plant breeding material (seed, vegetative tissue) quality. Two or more of these groups already have Foss visible and near-infrared spectrometers. The transfer of prediction models between organizations will allow for robust and consistent predictions across groups, fostering collaborative projects between institutions. The Foss DS3 is factory standardized in wavelength, bandpass, and response for precise calibration transfer. This means that it has improved calibration transferability and the same calibration can be used on multiple instruments out of the box. No other supplier can meet the unique design and compatibility needs outlined above. For these reasons, this is a sole source procurement.
