- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Newport Corporation in Irvine, CA for the purchase of (2) two translation stages, (1) one motion controller, (1) one dc actuator, (2) two angle brackets, (1) one multi-axis X-Y stage and 1 (one) multi-axis tilt program.***Sole source determination is based on the need for these stages, controllers, programs and brackets to be completely compatible and interchangeable with existing actuators, controllers and custom designed software to interface computer support and data acquisition supplied by Newport Corporation. These new stages will enable NIST to increase the length of travel along the X-Y axes of the flow coater to allow for exploration of larger samples. The controller will also facilitate the integration of these new stages with auxiliary actuators used in sample preparation, which in turn limits possible conflicts in software programs used to drive the various stages and actuators. The remaining items are to be used in the mounting and assembly of these new stages onto the workstation where the apparatus currently resides.***Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Gaithersburg, MD, and is required within 60 days after receipt of order.***The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334513, and the size standard is 500 employees.***No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by May 28, 2002. E-mail all questions or comments regarding this notice to joni.laster@nist.gov. ***A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.***
