- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Acquisition Management Division, on behalf of the Analytical Chemistry Division, Material Measurement Laboratory, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106 1(b)(1), with Advanced Measurement Technology, Inc., DBA AMETEK, for the purchase of standard refurbishment for five ORTEC GEM Gamma-ray Detectors. Sole Source determination is based on the following: AMETEK is the only company capable of providing the refurbishment of the ORTEC GEM Gamma-ray Detectors. Specifically, the internal workings and unique details of the systems are proprietary to AMETEK. Due to the proprietary nature of these systems, no other vendor would be able to provide the required refurbishment of these systems. AMETEK does not license other vendors to utilize their proprietary technology. As a result, AMETEK is uniquely qualified to satisfy the Government's minimum requirement. AMETEK is the only vendor capable of providing the required refurbishment of five ORTEC GEM Gamma-ray Detectors in order to satisfy the Government's minimum requirements. AMETEK is the sole manufacturer and distributor. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 811219, and the size standard is $19 million. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by August 26, 2011, 3:30 p.m. EST. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
