- RECOVERY – PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE FOR LINE ITEM 0001 OF SB1341-09-CQ-0312 RECOVERY - THIS REQUIREMENT IS BEING FUNDED BY THE AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT OF 2009. This pre-solicitation notice is hereby issued in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 5.704. THIS REQUIREMENT IS A PARTIAL RE-COMPETE OF SOLICITATION SB1341-09-RQ-0312. THE GOVERNMENT DID NOT RECEIVE ANY TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE QUOTATION FOR LINE ITEM 0001 IN RESPONSE TO THE PREVIOUSLY COMPETETED REQUIREMENT. THE TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS HAVE BEEN AMENDED FROM THE PREVIOUSLY COMPETED REQUIREMENT FOR LINE ITEM 0001. THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY – BOULDER (NIST BOULDER) REQUIRES A VECTOR NETWORK ANALYZER (VNA) BASED SYSTEM. The system will be used for precise rf/microwave/mm wave network analysis measurements as well as support for other fundamental measurement capabilities. This will include connectorized measurements based on coaxial and waveguide transmission lines and on-wafer measurements. This system will need to cover the frequency range of 10 MHz to 700 GHz. NIST Boulder requirements for the system include two identically configured four-port 50 GHz VNAs and one set (pair) of frequency extension heads, for full two-port scattering parameter measurements, to use with the VNAs sufficient to cover 90 GHz to 700 GHz without any gaps in frequency coverage. This will give us the maximum flexibility and configuration to support high frequency, nonlinear and multi-port measurements. Delivery terms shall be FOB DESTINATION. The delivery schedule shall be stated in the request for quotation. The NAICS code for this requirement is 334516 with a small business size standard of 500 employees. This requirement is being procured using full & open competition. This requirement is not set-aside for small business. Simplified Acquisition Procedures shall be utilized under the authority of FAR 13.5 Test Program for Certain Commercial Items. One or more of the items under this acquisition is subject to World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and Free Trade Agreements. Potential Offerors will be responsible for obtaining this solicitation and related Amendments, if any, from www.fbo.gov after the solicitation has been posted. It is, and will continue to be, the responsibility of each potential Offeror to monitor www.fbo.gov for any amendments or other information related to the solicitation; the Government will not be maintaining a mailing list. Any communications regarding this acquisition must be made in writing and forwarded via email to todd.hill@nist.gov, and shall identify the solicitation number, company name, company address, as well as point of contact email address and phone number. Offerors shall be actively registered in the Central Contractor Registration website at www.ccr.gov, in order to be eligible to receive a contract under this acquisition. NIST anticipates posting the solicitation immediately after the date of publication of this notice.
