- Description
- NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with New Focus of Irvine, CA 92606 for Velocity Laser System, Model 6328. The sole source determination is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology's(NIST) requirement for a widely tunable laser system that covers 1520-1570 nm. The laser system must have a linewidth less than 1 MHz and a fine frequency tuning range of at least 30 GHz (>2 kHz bandwidth) to resolve and study narrow resonator modes. For NIST to fulfill obligations with clients it is critical that our equipment be compatible with existing equipment. Market research indicates that New Focus is the only vendor can meet NIST's requirement. Delivery shall be 45 days ARO. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide a supply that fully meets 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.
