- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Acquisition Management Division, on behalf of the Physical Measurement Laboratory- Dimensional Metrology Group, intends to negotiate with Agilent Technologies, Inc.; Englewood, CO, on a sole source basis under the authority of FAR Subpart 13.106-1 (b), Soliciting from a Single Source, to purchase a laser head and laser system. The Dimensional Metrology Group has several measurement lasers that need to be mechanically and optically equivalent. This allows simple switching of lasers in and out without risk of significant cost and time delays. The lasers that the Dimensional Metrology Group uses have been standardized to work with the Agilent laser heads. The Agilent 5519A laser heads that NIST intends to use are compatible with the existing equipment. Market research has shown that there are no other lasers that can be compatible with the existing laser systems. The NAICS Code is 334515- Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals with a Size Standard of 500 employees. NIST anticipates negotiating and awarding a firm-fixed-price purchase order to Agilent Technologies, Inc. for this requirement. Interested parties that believe they could satisfy the requirements listed above for NIST may clearly and unambiguously identify their capability to do so in writing on or before the response date for this notice. This notice of intent is not a solicitation. Information submitted in response to this notice will be used solely to determine whether competitive procedures could be used for this acquisition. Any questions regarding this notice must be submitted in writing via email to Eric Bubar at eric.bubar@nist.gov. All responses to this notice of intent must be submitted so that they are received at eric.bubar@nist.gov no later than May 28, 2012 at 5:00 pm. Contracting Office Address: 100 Bureau Drive, Building 301, Room B129, Mail Stop 1640 Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899-1640 Place of Performance: 100 Bureau Drive Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899 United States Primary Point of Contact: Eric Bubar, Contract Specialist eric.bubar@nist.gov Phone: 301-975-3635 Fax: 301-975-8904
