This synopsis/solicitation replaces Solicitation N00173-08-R-KK03, which has been cancelled. The solicitation, N00173-08-R- KK06, is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through FAC 2005-26 and DFARS Change Notice 20080513. The associated small business size standard is 500 employees. NRL has a requirement for a Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) system for Oxides (CLIN 0001). Option Items for CLIN 0001 include Additional Ports (CLINS 0002 through 0006), an Aluminum Effusion Source (CLIN 0007), Aluminum Effusion Cell Shutter (CLIN 0008), Aluminum Effusion Source Power Supplies (CLIN 0009), Aluminum Effusion Source Temperature Controllers (CLIN 0010), Residual Gas Analysis System (CLIN 0011), RHEED Electron Gun (CLIN 0012), Quartz Crystal Rate Monitor (CLIN 0013), Sample Wafer Holders (CLIN 0014), a Spare Parts Kit (CLIN 0015), System Automation (CLIN 0016) and a Flux Monitoring Ion Gauge (CLIN 0017). Offerors may propose on any or all of the option items. Any option items may be exercised at any time up to nine months after the date of award. The complete specification and/or other information required for this combined synopsis/solicitation is available at http://heron.nrl.navy.mil/contracts/RFP/08kk06.htm Delivery and acceptance is at NRL, Washington, D.C. 20375, F.O.B. Destination. Delivery shall be no later than 300 days from date of award. The provision at 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial, applies to this acquisition. The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation--Commercial Items is incorporated. The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to that responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be the most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate the offers: 1)Proposals will be evaluated on the extent to which the proposed instrument is compatible with the existing VG V80H MBE wafer mounts, wafer transfer mechanisms, effusion cell designs, and control electronics. 2)Proposals will be evaluated on the extent to which the proposed instrument is flexible enough to permit the study of a wide variety of materials over its operational life. This evaluation factor will also include an evaluation of the number of effusion cell ports, shutters, and measurement and characterization ports proposed. Also to be evaluated is whether an additional high-conductance UHV pumping port is provided. 3)Proposals will be evaluated on the quality of the components supplied, the quality of the system design, and the extent to which the capabilities proposed are demonstrated with documentation provided with the proposal. 4)Proposals will be evaluated on the extent to which the proposed instrument is as compact as possible while meeting the required specifications and permitting future expansion. 5) Proposals will be evaluated on the price proposed. 6) Proposals will be evaluated on the extent to which the offeror has demonstrated good performance in the past. The factors above are listed in descending order of importance. Factors 3, 4 and 5 are equal in value. All evaluation factors other than price, when combined, are significantly more important than price. Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government’s best interests, the Government will evaluate the total price for the basic requirement together with any option(s) exercised at the time of award.
