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 Plasma-Therm, for the acquisition of a replacement process turbo pump to be used in the Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) NanoFab Facility at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland. Background Information The Center of Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) at National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is a multi-user facility that provides hands-on access to state-of-the-art Nanofabrication equipment and processes to researchers of all levels of knowledge from novice to expert and from both inside and outside NIST. The tools within the facility are used by the researchers on a pay-by-use basis. ***** Sole source determination is based on the urgent need to replace a process turbo pump for the process chamber of an existing Unaxis Plasma-Therm Shuttle Line Etch System that recently failed, resulting in an unsafe operation. The turbo process pump provides high vacuum levels during sustained toxic gas flow and plasma discharge. Plasma-Therm is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and is the only vendor capable in providing the required pump. *****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516. ******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 be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. *****No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations.
