- Description
- National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Acquisition Management Division Sources Sought for Commercial Item Purchase THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION. It is a market research tool being used to determine potential and eligible business firms that can provide the product described herein prior to determining the method of acquisition. The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) seeks information on vendors that can provide software license support with software upgrades and support for simulation, modeling, and design of state-of-the-art measurement instrumentation for integrated circuits (ICs) working from DC to terahertz frequencies for the Teledyne Scientific and Northrup Grumman semiconductor foundries.� The new software license support must integrate easily with existing NIST software, hardware, and vendor systems according to the specifications and requirements attached herein. This announcement is not a Request for Quotation (RFQ) and does not commit the Government to award a contract now or in the future. No solicitation is currently available. Additionally, The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for any information received from potential sources because of this sources sought announcement.� The results of this Sources Sought will be utilized to determine if any Small Business Set-aside opportunities exist. All Small Business Set-aside categories will be considered. In addition, this market research tool is being used to identify potential and eligible firms, of all sizes, prior to determining the method of acquisition and issuance of a solicitation. Because of this Sources Sought announcement, NIST may conduct a competitive procurement on SAM.BETA.GOV formerly known as FBO.gov and subsequently award a contract. If at least two qualified small businesses are identified during this market research stage that can fulfill the requirement, in accordance with the requirement descriptions and technical specifications indicated in the Specification Document, then this acquisition shall be solicited as a small business set aside. However, NIST is seeking responses from all responsible sources, including large and small businesses (SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZone, SDVOSB and VOSB). This requirement is assigned a NAICS code of 511210 for Software Publishers, with a small business size standard of $38.5 million. The specific purpose of this Sources Sought Announcement is to determine if there are small businesses, within the parameters identified above, that can provide the specialized equipment identified in the Specifications Document. Interested business organizations that believe they can meet the requirement should submit electronic copies of their capability statement. Please limit responses to three (3) pages or less. Responses should include the following information: 1. Company Profile to include number of employees, office location(s), DUNS number and Cage Code. 2. Name of company that will provide the product. 3. Name of company that will manufacture the product. 4.� Specification sheets and examples of products that meet the Specifications attached herein. 5. Typical lead time to deliver the product after receipt of award to include installation time and any necessary training that is provided. 6. Identification and verification of the company�s small business status. 7. Any other relevant information that is not listed above which the Government should consider in developing our service requirement and finalizing our market research. (Company sales brochures or marketing packages will not be considered). � REQUIREMENTS OVERVIEW: See below Specifications. TITLE: ADS-ICCAP License Maintenance Requesting Lab/Division/Group: CTL 672.03 General Statement of Need NIST requires software license support with software upgrades and support to support the simulation, modeling, and design of state-of-the-art measurement instrumentation for integrated circuits (ICs) working from DC to terahertz frequencies. The new software license suport will have to integrate easily with our existing software, hardware, and vendor systems. Background NIST has a continuing need for software to perform circuit layout and design for the Teledyne Scientific and Northrup Grumman semiconductor foundries. NIST currently uses Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS) software for this purpose. This software is compatible with the software used at the two foundries. Objective(s) Obtain software license support for existing software used to perform circuit layout and design for the Teledyne Scientific and Northrup Grumman semiconductor foundries.� Scope/General Requirements Obtain 1 year software license support with software upgrades and support for sogtware required for circuit layout and design for the Teledyne Scientific and Northrup Grumman semiconductor foundries. Tasks/Specific Requirements 1. Description:�W2202BP/12812830 ADS Core, Layout, Advanced Layout, Harmonic Balance bundled software license Quantity: 1 year Required Date: 1 May 2020 2.
