- Description
- This is a Sources Sought Notice ONLY. Requests for copies of a solicitation will not receive a response.� This Notice is for planning purposes only and is not a Request for Proposal or Request for Quotation or an obligation on the part of the NIST for conducting a follow-on acquisition.� NIST does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this Notice, or otherwise pay for the information requested.� No entitlement or payment of direct or indirect costs or charges by NIST will arise as a result of submission of responses to this Notice and NIST�s use of such information.� NIST recognizes that proprietary components, interfaces and equipment, and clearly mark restricted or proprietary components, interfaces and equipment, and clearly mark restricted or proprietary data and present it as an addendum to the non-restricted/non-proprietary information.� In the absence of such identification, NIST will assume to have unlimited rights to all technical data provided in the response. � NO SOLICITATION DOCUMENTS EXIST AT THIS TIME. � NIST is seeking information from sources that are capable of providing one (1) high accuracy and stability 3-Axis gyroscope Summary of Requirements: The NIST Mass and Force Group is developing a calibration service for inertial measurement units using a 2-Axis Position and Rate Table for excitation.� NIST is seeking a high accuracy and stability 3-axis gyroscope that is compatible in size and weight with the rate table, which has threaded holes in a 4� grid pattern in the center.� This will likely require that NIST will need to fabricate a mount for the device, but requiring that the device is small enough to fit within a 4� diameter circle, is light enough not to place a significant mechanical load on the instrument, and is in a housing that will allow NIST to attach it securely to the table or mount. The requested equipment shall include but is not limited to the minimum specifications below. Vendors shall provide information demonstrating that they are capable of providing one (1) high accuracy and stability 3-Axis gyroscope that meets the following minimum specifications: Rotation Rate: at least �490� maximum input rate Bias Stability: ? 0.1�/hr, 1? (max) @ 25�C Bias Offset: ? 1�/hr (max) @ 25�C Gain Nonlinearity: ? 50 ppm, 1? (max) @ 25�C Angle Random Walk: ? 0.7�/hr/?Hz (max) @ 25�C -3db Bandwidth: ?440 Hz Data Interface: Asynchronous or Synchronous Data rate: ?1 kHz Dimensions: ? 4� dia Weight: ? 0.6 kg NIST is seeking responses from all responsible business sources to include small businesses. Small businesses are defined under the size standard of 1,000 employees associated with the applicable NAICS code, 334516� Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. Please include company�s size classification and socio-economic status in any response to this notice. Interested parties shall describe the capabilities of their organization as it relates to the requirements described herein.� Businesses able to provide the requested equipment are directed to email a detailed response describing their capabilities to tracy.bisson@nist.gov no later than the response date for this source sought notice. The report shall include any information relevant to the organization�s capabilities to meet the requirements detailed in Summary of Requirements. Also, the following information is requested to be provided as part of the response to this sources sought notice: Documentation of any relevant experience in providing the items described herein; Name, Address, DUNs number, CAGE code, business size, �and a point of contact for the company (name, phone number, fax number and email address); Number of days, after receipt of order that is typical for delivery of product; � Indication of whether the product is currently on one or more GSA Federal Supply Schedule contracts or any other government-wide contracts. If so, please provide the applicable contract number(s); Indication of whether the product proposed is a commercial item currently offered in the market place; Interested vendors shall address their capability of providing Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts; and Any other relevant information that is not listed above which the Government should consider in finalizing its market research. Responses are limited to a total of twelve (12) pages in MS Word or PDF format. NIST invites all interested vendors to submit any questions or comments regarding the Draft Summary of Requirements via email to tracy.bisson@nist.gov within 3 calendar days of the posting of this notice. NIST intends to then post an amendment providing responses to any questions received. Official responses to the Sources Sought Notice shall be submitted by May 29, 2020 at 11:59 pm EST.
