- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Central Research Laboratories of Red Wing, Minnesota, for the purchase of a Model G Telemanipulator and the repair of the existing Telemanipulator, needed by the Physical Measurement Laboratory Division at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland Sole source determination is based on the need for an upgrade to the remote system for manipulating radioactive sources in the Manganese Bath Facility. NIST requires an additional Telemanipuator to be added to the existing system. The manipulator is a proprietary design of Central Research Laboratories. The two manipulators (one to be operated by the left hand, the other by the right hand) must be identical in order for the system to be operational. Central Research Laboratories is the only known vendor capable in providing the required Telemanipulator and repair. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 500. A determination by the Government whether to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
