63 -- SCANNER & ADDITIONAL CABLE SOL 53SBNB967045 POC Angela Mills, Contract Specialist, (301) 975-8008; Diane Loeb, Contracting Officer, (301) 975-6399 WEB: NIST Contracts Homepage, http://www.Nist.gov/admin/od/Contract.htm. E-MAIL: NIST Contracts Office, Contract@nist.gov. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Electricity Division intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Data Proof, 1177 S. De Anza Blvd., San Jose, CA 95129 for Two (2) each: Model 320AR OPT3 32 Channel Four-Terminal Guarded Scanner, Rack Mount and five hundred forty four (544) feet: Longer cables (Additional cabling to make lead length 10 Feet for each output cable). These low-thermal guarded scanners implement a guard circuit design that was developed collaboratively by Data Proof and NIST researchers to meet a measurement need for low-thermal guarded switching in automated guarded DC resistance levels up to 100G. These low-thermal guarded scanners are now commercially manufactured by Data Proof as an off -the-shelf product. These scanners will be used to replace unguarded low-thermal scanners that are used in the Ring Method calibration system. The new guarded scanners will be 100% compatible with existing software used to control the instrumentation, specifically the old unguarded scanners, of the Ring Method calibration system.The delivery for this requirement is estimated to be 5 weeks after receipt of order. FOB: Origin No solicitation package will be issued. A Request for Quote (RFQ) will be issued to Data Proof. The contractor is the only source for this instrumentation because instrumentation must be fully compatible with the existing systems currently being used in the NIST Laboratories. The vendor manufacturer can meet the requirement for a fully guarded scanner with low thermal noise (20nV) and guarding that permits resistance measurements to the 100 G level.The anticipated award date of the contract is on or around 30 days from the date of this notice. In accordance with FAR 5.207 (e) (3), Numbered Note 22 DOES NOT APPLY and Numbered Note 26 Does Apply. If you have any questions regarding this announcement, Please contact Angela Mills at 301-975-8008 or via E-Mail angela.mills@nist.gov. Posted 03/05/99 (W-SN305320). (0064)
