Notice Details

Pursuant to Section 3-05 of the NYC Procurement Policy Board Rules, it is the intent of the New York City Police Department (“NYPD”) to enter into sole source negotiations with Craic Technologies, Inc. (“Craic Technologies”) with the expectation that the vendor will be awarded a contract with the NYPD to provide a brand-specific 2030PV Pro UV-vis-NIR Microspectrophotometer (“MSP”).

The contract will provide for the manufacture and delivery of one MSP to the Criminalistics Section of the Police Laboratory at 150-14 Jamaica Ave., Rm 322, Jamaica, NY 11432. This instrument will be utilized to compare fibers transferred between a victim and a suspect.

Craic Technologies is the sole manufacturer of the MSP. This instrument is proprietary equipment and Craic Technologies owns the copyrights to its design specifications. The NYPD is of the belief that because the instrument is proprietary and copyrighted, Craic Technologies is the only vendor legally authorized to provide this specialized item.

Any vendor besides Craic Technologies that believes that it can provide the MSP to the NYPD is invited to do so.  Please respond in PASSPort to the Expression of Interest by answering the applicable Question in the Questionnaire Section of the Manage Responses tab and writing an expression of interest as a long response.

If you have questions about the details of the RFx, please submit them through the Discussion with Buyer tab or e-mail Jordan Glickstein and Tiana Urey at jordan.glickstein@nypd.org and tiana.urey@nypd.org.
