B.3 STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) Contract Title Annual preventative maintenance services for a Liquid Chromatography (LC) system Background The VA Maryland Health Care System (VAMHCS) requires preventative maintenance on an Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC system for its research and development (R&D) service. The LC system is a fully automated way to separate, identify and quantify the different components of a liquid mixture, or to purify one. The VAMHCS R&D service purchased the Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC system in 2020 and the warranty ran out in August of 2021. Therefore, it is prudent that preventative maintenance services be put into place to ensure the longevity, and gain the fullest benefit, of the equipment. Scope The Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC system requires yearly maintenance to ensure continuing efficiency and accuracy. An LC system running within specific parameters is necessary to monitor the experimental therapies that treat neurodegenerative diseases in laboratory mice. Definition OEM Original Equipment Manufacturer ISO International Organization for Standardization PM Preventative Maintenance Specific Tasks The primary task to be accomplished is to maintain the Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC system within normal operating parameters and safety standards. VENDOR REQUIREMENTS ALL SERVICE REQUIREMENTS SHALL: BE A CERTIFIED ISO-9000 VENDOR; ADDRESS THE ABILITY TO SUPPORT THE OEM SPECIFIED CHECKLIST (ATTACHED IN SECTION D.2) CERTIFY THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE OEM PARTS WHEN NECESSARY; CERTIFY THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN EQUIPMENT PER OEM STANDARDS; AND DEMONSTRATE ABILITY TO UPDATE/UPGRADE SOFTWARE PER OEM STANDARDS. **If needed, third party may buy the software updates/upgrades and provide them. Task 1 - Enterprise Management Controls Subtask 1 - Integration Management Control Planning The contractor shall provide service and maintenance to the Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC system consisting of: 1260 Infinity II Quaternary Pump (Serial Number: DEAET02594), maximum pressure 600bar. Includes quaternary pump with integrated 4-channel degassing unit, column, connecting capillaries, solvent cabinet, solvent bottles and CAN cable 1260 Infinity II Multisampler (Serial Number: DEAGY01523), up to 600 bar for well plates and individual sample containers. Includes 1 sample drawer, 2x 54-vial containers, a needle flush port, 100 uL metering device and loop. 1260 Infinity II Multicolumn Thermostat (MCT) (Serial Number: DEAED17821) 1260 Infinity II Diode array detector WR (Serial Number: DEAC610264) 1260 Infinity II Analytical Fraction Collector maximum rate up to 10 mL/min (Serial Number: DEAGS00829) OpenLab ChemStation workstation The system was purchased from Agilent technologies. The COR will inspect and discuss with the Principal Investigator of the laboratory to confirm that contracting tasks have been progressed and performed in accordance with SOW and in timely manner. Deliverables Annual preventative maintenance and services for the Agilent 1260 Infinity LC system. Subtask 2 - Contract Management PM coverage shall include all the necessary components required to perform scheduled PM inspections and service on the Agilent 1260 Infinity LC system. Deliverables: Upon completion of routine PM inspections or emergency service calls, the vendor shall provide a written summary of all tasks accomplished, including any observations and recommendations concerning any associated equipment and systems. Performance Monitoring The Principal Investigator of the laboratory using the device will ensure validity of work and if the need arises work with the COR to arrange for technical support by phone and email for the device. Security Requirements Vendor service technicians are to have identification badging visible on their person while on VA premises, and are subject to Federal Installation Security Requirements, including inspection of any containers, equipment or vehicles as required. Inspection and Acceptance Criteria Acceptance based on device operating within normal parameters, per the OEM. Place of Performance University of Maryland Baltimore 685 West Baltimore street, MSTF, #516A Baltimore, MD 21201 Period of Performance Base January 12, 2022 through January 11, 2023 Option year 1 January 12, 2023 through January 11, 2024 Option year 2 January 12, 2024 through January 11, 2025 Option year 3 January 12, 2025 through January 11, 2026 Option year 4 January 12, 2026 through January 11, 2027
