- Description
- NASA/LARC has a requirement for the replacement, installation, integration, and alignment of an amorphous silicon digital X-ray detector into the NASA Langley microfocus computed tomography x-ray system. NASA/LARC intends to purchase the replacement part and installation services from Nikon Metrology, Inc. The replacement part is an integral part of an existing microfocus computed tomography x-ray system custom designed and built by X-TEK Group, Inc., which has since merged with Nikon Metrology.The replacement part will be fully wired, configured, and integrated into the existing system. This system is proprietary and integration of the x-ray detector by any other vendor besides Nikon Metrology will void the warranty and maintenance agreement of the entire system. Additionally, this system is a technically advanced instrument and contains significant intellectual property and proprietary data. A significant monetary investment in this system was made and it would take substantial duplication of resources and time for another source to develop a similar custom system, and this additional expense is not expected to be recovered through competition. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on June 29, 2012. Such capabilities/qualifications 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 full and open competition 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. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
