- Description
- NASA/JSC has a requirement for a NanoSIMS 50L upgrade. NASA/JSC intends to purchase the items from Cameca Instruments, Inc. for the following reasons: (1) Cameca's instrument enables simultaneous measurements of multiple isotopic systems, (2) the upgrade will enable measuring very high ion count rates at the highest possible precision and accuracy, and (3) the Cameca design is compatible with the ARES NanoSIMS 50L specifically and working with any vendor other than Cameca might compromise the base instrument's scientific value, which exceeds $3 Million. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on August 9, 2007. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed.
