- Description
- This is a combined sole source notice and intent to issue a solicitation for award on a sole source basis to Newport Corporation, New Focus Division for replacement external-cavity diode laser (ECDL) systems for atomic fountain clocks. To maintain system integrity, all items and support must be from Newport Corporation. Higher-Level DoD requirements necessitates that all hardware and ancillary support be obtained directly from Newport Corporation, New Focus Division. The Satellite and Instrument Development (SAID) division at the U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO) seeks to procure a spare external-cavity diode laser system for their automatic fountain clocks. These clocks have been designated to meet FOC and they are being used by the USNO in an operational capacity. These clocks employ two Newport Vortex II laser systems for cooling, trapping and detecting rubidium atoms. Maintaining an inventory of interchangeable parts for the atomic fountain is crucial. Newport Corporation, New Focus Division is the only vendor that makes the lasers that are interchangeable with the parts already in use. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive quotes. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. All inquiries should be sent to Shawn Thomas at: shawn.thomas1@navy.mil no later than 4:00pm EST on 12 September 2014.
