- Description
- THIS IS FOR MARKET RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY, NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL OR SOLICITATION. The Food and Drug Administration, Jefferson Laboratories, in Jefferson, Arkansas is seeking small business sources, including service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, HUBZone small businesses, and 8(a) certified companies. The Market Research is to identify potential contractors to provide a Microscope Image Analysis System for quality analysis and results in the macro to nano range that provides all functionalities for dimensional measurements, surface analysis, characterization and conforms to ISO Standards. The requirements are listed below. Requirements The system must be able to measure up to 100 mm in height at a vertical (z axis) 10 nm spatial resolutions. The system must be able to measure vertical angles equal to or greater than 80 degrees slope. The system must have stage capacity able to accommodate heavy objects (i.e. >30Lb). The system must be able to measure and seamlessly stitch 3D and 2D images and data sets up to 100 mm x 100 mm in the X, Y axis. The system must be able to measure samples without any sample preparation. The system must produce high quality data sets in the x, y and z in true color results and not monochrome or pseudo color. The system must perform 3D calculations based on the accepted model that conforms to ISO Standards covering surfaces that behave like a soap film on true color reconstructed data sets from vertical samples. The system must allow automation program(s) to be modified using simple syntax via scripting (i.e. JavaScript). The systems 2D image analysis can perform manual and semi-automatic measurements of simple features. The system must have the ability to write on the images and save measurement results in a database. The system must include the ability of automatic searches of equally shaped structures on the image. The system performs volumetric analysis that calculates the volume of debossings (i.e. in tablets) and protrusions with the measurement directly on the optical color image. The system must perform automatic calculations of the reference plane from 3D points. The system must be able to perform measurements and characterization of common surfaces and complex geometries of components of surfaces. The system must be able to perform automatic measurement of various physical features, measurement of roundness, evenness and alignment of sphere and measurement of cylindrical forms. The system must allow for specialized measurements of surface structures and provide various image analysis calculations functions. The system must be able to perform profile analysis of a sample (e.g. roughness and contour measurements) which conforms to ISO standards. The system must perform measurements of roughness, waviness and contour using recognized international ISO standards. The system provides desktop software that allows full analysis and viewing of 3D and 2D data sets/images produced. The system must also be able to import Z Axis image stacks from any optical microscope and produce compatible images with 3D data and fully extended depth of focus sharp images. The system must have the capability to effectively capture spectral variation between over-illuminated and under-illuminated surfaces in a radiometrically-balanced image. Required results are to be well exposed in all specular areas and contain accurate topographic data sets. The system must be able to obtain a 3D measurement that simultaneously captures the entire surface topographic information in combination with its true color information. The topographic and color information are registered to the 3D data file and 3D measurements and this must be performed directly on the optical color image. The system must be able to measure steep edges and vertical sides. The analysis has the need of measurements that are up to 88° angle (steep). Measurement results of deep angles surfaces must be reproduced with a vertical resolution of up to 10nm; and with a minimum 50 nanometer resolution with 20 mm working distance. The system must be factory calibrated and after installation a traceable calibration standard must be included with the system to allow for in-house calibration. The calibration standard must be traceable to a national or international standards laboratory. Complex geometries are measured with a vertical resolution of up to 10nm and in a single sweep up to 77mm measuring surface range, with a specific requirement of 50 nm resolution with a 20 mm of working distance. Volumetric measurements are performed directly in the optical image. The system must provide 3D images with full depth of focus and 3D surface measurement in true and false color. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 334516 with a size standard of 500 employees. Interested Contractors must demonstrate their capability by submitting descriptive material necessary for the government to determine whether the product offered meets the technical requirements including: technical specifications, descriptive material, literature, brochures and other information corresponding to the requirement that demonstrates the capabilities of the contractors supplies. Responses to this notice shall include the following: Company name and address, phone number, point of contact, email address, business size, solicitation number and identify references directly related to the requirement listed above. Capability statements are due August 1, 2008, 2:00 p.m. (central time - Jefferson, Arkansas) by postal mail, fax, or email to the Food and Drug Administration, Office of Field Financial and Acquisition Services, Attn: Regina Williams, HFT-320, 3900 NCTR Road, Jefferson, AR 72079.
