- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Mountain Region Acquisition Division, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Eagleyard Photonics of Berlin, Germany for the purchase of laser diodes. ***Sole Source determination is based on NOAA's requirement for high performance distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes operating at 780 nm. The lasers must produce high power (at least 70 milliwatts) and be tunable. These lasers are necessary for the complex laser cooling system and to provide replacement for the limited lifetime laser. Eagleyard is the only vendor that offers laser diodes that meets our technical requirements. Specifically, no other vendor can meet the NOAA requirement for the compact, solid state diode laser that is required for a small size of the miniature atomic clock. ***This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide equipment that fully meets the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 10 days after publication of this synopsis. Documentation should include literature, brochures and such other materials, which correspond to the required items stated herein. Such documentation 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 competitive 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.
