- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Mountain Region Acquisition Division, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with the Regents of the University of Colorado of Boulder, CO, for the purchase of scientific services to conduct in-depth experimental investigation, key measurement, and analysis of electromechanical properties of high-temperature superconducting materials. ***The sole source determination is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) market research and expert knowledge in determining that the Regents of the University of Colorado is a unique source for providing the key measurement and analysis skills required. The contractor shall perform measurements on the effect of strain on the superconducting properties of thin film superconductors which are deposited on single- and bi-crystalline substrates. In addition, the contractor has hands-on experience with operating helium flow-cryostats with build-in strain fixtures to perform magneto-optical imaging on superconductors. The delivery date shall be June 30, 2009. ***This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can fully meet the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Such documentation will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to conduct a competitive procurement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
