- Description
- PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE This requirement is being procured using contracting by negotiation under the authority of FAR Part 15. The following proposed contract action is contemplated: A single contract award with the Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, MD 20899. NIST is seeking eligible companies who are capable of designing, developing and fabrication of an instrument sub-system suitable for Very-Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (VSANS) Instrument for the NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) at its main Gaithersburg, Maryland campus. NCNR is currently developing a VSANS instrument for installation on a cold neutron beamline. A major component of this instrument is a large steel vacuum chamber, with three internal mobile platforms for supporting and positioning neutron detection systems (the neutron detection systems are not part of the requirement). The purpose of the vacuum chamber and its neutron detectors is to determine the nanostructure of research materials by recording and analyzing the angular distribution scattered neutrons. The competitive Request for Proposals (RFP), specifications, any subsequent amendments, and all questions and answers related to this procurement shall be made available via the Internet at HTTP://WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV under RFP number SB1341-14-RP-0018 after the posting of the RFP.
