Description

Statement of Work (SOW) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) for the San Juan Medical Products Laboratory Background The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), San Juan Medical Products Laboratory (SJNLMP), needs to replace an existing Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) system used for routine sample identification analysis with a new Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR System). The system in use needs to maintain cGMP/cGLP, ISO/IEC 17025-2017, ISO 9001:2008, and 21 CFR 11 standards for use as analytical equipment under the current accreditation. The system is used to analyze medical product samples using specific protocols and methods established by USP, internal FDA, DOD SLEP, and the FCC program. As a Medical Product Specialty Laboratory, the laboratory uses FTIR technology to analyze and provide specific identification to a variety of drug samples. The San Juan Laboratory needs to update the existing 17-year-old FTIR to a new system with modern capabilities, software, and instrument components. The older FTIR system is no longer supported by the manufacturer, is out of service and in need of repairs, and is no longer functioning as intended. In addition, the hardware shows internal system rust and lens fogging, increasing maintenance costs, posing analytical failures, and instrument malfunctions. The newer Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) includes part warranties for up to 10 years and comes with newer software and instrument controller. Objectives To obtain a fully functional modern Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) with improved analytical capabilities to replace a 17-year-old FTIR system. Scope The Contractor shall provide all resources necessary to accomplish the tasks and deliverables described in this Statement of Work (SOW). One FTIR system to replace an older FTIR system.
