- FBO ANNOUNCEMENT: PRESOLICITATION NOTICE SUBJECT: High Frequency Acousto-Optic Frequency Shifters SOLICITATION NUMBER: NB684040-14-05221 RESPONSE DATE: September 8, 2014 CONTACT POINTS: Chris Ganey, Contract Specialist, 301-975-6205 Don Graham-, Contracting Officer, 301-975-8567 DESCRIPTION: The Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), intends to negotiate a firm fixed price purchase order, on a sole source basis, with Brimrose Corporation, Baltimore, MD, for the purchase of two High Frequency Acousto-Optic Frequency Shifters other than full and open competition by the authority of FAR 13.106(b)(1). Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements: A sole source determination is based on the following: Only Brimrose Corporation can meet our technical requirements. Specifically no other vendor can meet the NIST requirements for: Two High Frequency Acousto-Optic Frequency Shifters with the following specifications: The frequency shifters must provide a frequency offset of 1 GHz with a wide tuning bandwidth of 500 MHz in order to span the frequency difference between the 1.5 GHz cavity free spectral range and a target spectral transition in Rubidium 87. The shifters must be based on acousto-optic technology. The shifters Must have high frequency range (1 GHz). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 500 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement.
