Intent to Sole Source to SAPHYMO GmbH for Calibration and Repair of GammaTRACER Detector

The justification is as follows. SAPHYMO is the original instrument manufacturer of the GammaTRACER detector. Their parts and calibration capabilities are proprietary and no other parts and calibration services will be compatible with the system in existence at R&IE. SAPHYMO is the only vendor which has the combination of expertise and parts availability.
