Purchase of Oil Extraction Instrumentation 12639525Q0198

The purpose of this procurement is to replace ageing oil extraction equipment while minimizing any changes when replacing old instrumentation to retain continuity of services to reduce any disruptions in operations and support of the grain industry that may occur from unnecessary method development and deviations from the current method. The most important evaluation factor for this solicitation will be the ability to meet the technical requirements for the oil extraction equipment. Instrument reliability and ability to support the instrumentation through the availability of trained and locally available personnel, as well as capability to offer service contracts or agreements will be of secondary importance. The initial cost of the instrumentation will be of third and lesser importance, since long-term program costs will escalate if the instrumentation is not able to meet the technical requirements.
