- Description
- The National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) 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 Kimmon Electric US LP for Helium-Cadmium (HeCd) laser. The sole source determination is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) Optoelectrioncs Division requirement for a helium-cadmium (HeCd) laser that can meet all the technical specifications. Kimmon is the only known vendor that can provide a helium-cadmium (HeCd) laser with: a. 50 mW continuous wave output at a wavelength of 325 nm, b. TEM00 transverse mode operation, c. linearly polarized output with a polarization ratio no less than 500:1, d. wall-plug operation, e. air cooled operation, f. the dimensions of the laser head must not exceed 1450 mm (long) x 150 mm (wide) x 200 mm (height), g. The beam spot intensity diameter of the TEM00 output mode at the exit aperture must not exceed 1.3 mm as measured at the (1/e)^2 points, h. the beam divergence of the TEM00 mode must not exceed 0.5 mrad, i. the beam pointing stability must not exceed +/- 14 microradians when the laser is operated in a constant laboratory ambient temperature of 25 C. Delivery 60 days after receipt of order. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, firms that believe they can provide equipment 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 compete this proposed effort on a competitive basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
