(end of provision) The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334516 with a small business size standard of 1000 employees. This is a set-aside for small business. All offerors shall provide a firm-fixed-price quotation in the following pricing table format: Contract Line Item Number (CLINs) TOTAL CLIN 0001 � � STATEMENT OF WORK BACKGROUND INFORMATION The SRM 3100 Series Single-Element Solutions are certified single-element solutions primarily used as calibrant solutions for spectrometric analyses and are the primary source of SI traceability for elemental analysis measurements made world-wide. These materials provide a short, clear traceability chain to the SI, have very small uncertainties associated with their assigned mass fractions, and are stable for long periods of time. These solutions are mainly stored in a sealed borosilicate glass ampoule in a 10% nitric acid solution, with the exception of solutions containing hydrofluoric acid being stored in high-density polyethylene bottles. The 3100s are certified with a mass fraction value around 10 mg/g for the single element. Certifications are completed using High-Performance Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (HP-ICP-OES) with exact matching. HP-ICP-OES is a gravimetrically prepared and drift corrected procedure that involves the use of a single-point calibration method. The method is a ratio-based experimental design that compares the analyte-to-internal standard ratio of well-known calibrants against the analyte-to-internal standard ratio of the unknowns to determine the mass fraction of the unknowns. In order to for the ratio comparison to be accomplished, the analyte and internal standard emissions are measured simultaneously. Gravimetric preparation of the samples allows the analyst to compare the mass fractions of calibrants to the mass of fractions of the unknown using ratios. Gravimetric preparation provides a clear and easily defensible chain of traceability to the International System of Units (SI), which is critical to these materials. Exact matching is a multistep dilution process where analytes are diluted down to a target mass fraction capable of running on the instrument. The goal is to match the analyte mass fractions, internal standard mass fractions, and matrix compositions of the calibrants to the sample/unknown solutions so that they are nearly identical to one another. Exact matching has been shown to drastically improve the results of HP-ICP-OES analyses and reduce expanded uncertainties of the mass fractions for the analytes. The sample preparation process is completed manually and gravimetrically by one analyst. During the certification and stability check process, the SRM samples are diluted gravimetrically down to a mass fraction value of roughly 1.0 mg/g to match nominal mass fraction of the calibrants. Then SRM samples, control (if present), and calibrants are spiked gravimetrically with an internal standard and finally gravimetrically diluted once or twice to a final mass fraction value that is capable of being measured by the instrument. The dilutions and spiking of solutions must be completed using a specific target mass for each individual sample in order to follow the exact matching guidelines. This sample preparation has a tolerance for how closely target masses must be hit. A range of tolerances between 1 mg and 4 mg for masses 0.1 g to 65 g respectively is a requirement for maintaining the low level of uncertainty that is one of the primary characteristics of the 3100 series materials. All the dilutions are carried out in 60 mL Nalgene narrow-mouth 2003-0002 LDPE bottles. Our in-house calibrants known as NPS solutions are also stored in these bottles. These bottles have been shown to keep solutions stable in storage over extended period of time and have been well characterized over the decades that the 3100 series program has been in existence. Therefore, any purchased product must be compatible with preparation in these containers. The SRM 3100 Series Single-Element Solutions serve as crucial part in elemental determinations in the research and industry markets. This is due their small relative uncertainty and short chain of traceability to the SI. Both of these aspects would not be possible without the use of gravimetric sample preparation and the use of HP-ICP-OES with exact matching. Therefore, it is critical to Inorganic Chemical Metrology Group that an automated sample preparation system completes all tasks required gravimetrically while also maintaining the current uncertainty that is met by the manual sample preparation method. The Inorganic Chemical Metrology Group is in the market for an automated sample preparation system to be used in the certification and maintenance of the SRM 3100 Series Single-Element Solutions. The current sample preparation is a gravimetric weighing process that is completed by one analyst manually. This process is both time consuming and is highly susceptible to mistakes, such as over diluting. Much of the precision in this method relies on the consistency of the analyst�s abilities. �� SCOPE OF WORK The Contractor shall provide a sample preparation system, install the instrument and provide training. SPECIFICATIONS System Requirements: Must be able to dilute by mass. Dilution by volume and conversion to mass using some method such as density determination is not acceptable. The entire process must be gravimetrically controlled by the balance The preparation mechanism must be able to respond dynamically to the amount of solution added rather than setting a target mass and dispensing a set amount of solution without checking that the solution added matches the target mass. Must use an analytical balance for weighing samples. A top loader will not be acceptable. Balance must have at least a readability of 0.0001 g Must be able to dilute each individual sample to a target mass that varies from sample to sample During dilutions, the balance must be a closed system not exposed to the environment The system must be able to complete dilutions autonomously. Having the analyst hold the diluting mechanism is not acceptable When diluting to a target mass, the range of tolerances for solution added must be between 1 mg and 4 mg for target masses from 0.1 g to 65 g. Must be able to deposit solution into Nalgene narrow-mouth 60 mL HDPE/LDPE bottles (catalog number 2003-0002 for LDPE and 2002-0002 for HDPE) Additional consideration would be given to a product that has an autosampler rack capable of handling the above containers. The use of a sealable lab bag for a sample holder is not acceptable� Dilution mechanism must be able to add mass to a minimum of 0.1 mg. Dilutions and spiking must be completed in a single mass recording. If during dilutions the system is only capable of adding a small amount of solution to sample in one trip, it may add in internal standard or diluent several times to reach a single target mass. However, this method must not increase the overall uncertainty of the sample preparation to a value that is larger than the uncertainty that is currently acceptable from manual sample preparation. The system cannot be susceptible to memory effects, that is the parts in contact with samples much be resistant to corrosion by acids and absorption of/reaction with elements in the 3100 series of SRMs. Must be able to handle acids of up to 15 % nitric acid mass fraction, up to 10 % hydrochloric acid, and in some cases a mix of nitric and 4 % hydrofluoric acid or a mix of nitric acid and 4 % hydrochloric acid The list of current elements in the SRM 3100s can be found here: https://www-s.nist.gov/srmors/viewTableV.cfm?tableid=39 Must have parts that are removable for cleaning or total replacement The system must have software capable of interfacing with Microsoft Excel to output measured masses into a worksheet. The ability to take values from Microsoft Excel worksheets as input masses for dilutions is desirable. Must facilitate safe storage and handling of solvents, samples and waste solutions The balance used in the system must be capable of manual use so that a manual preparation mirroring the automated sample preparation can be performed on the same balance. The balance must be able to communicate with the pipetting mechanism in order to always hit the target mass without estimating If preparation times are long enough for evaporation (of an aqueous acid solution at room temperature) to be a significant source of uncertainty, the system must then cap the solutions and/or keep them in an enclosed environment that is not susceptible to humidity and temperature changes Installation: The Contractor shall install the instrument in Building 227, Room A362, at NIST Gaithersburg, MD.
