- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253 (c)(1) with Sensor Sciences, Pleasant Hill, CA for continuing development of adjustments to a neutron detector developed under the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase 2 R&D contract. As such, this additional work is an extension and thereby a Phase 3-SBIR contract under the SBIR legislations and policy directives. NIST has not identified any other sources that can provide the required service. It is believed that only this entity can satisfy the agency requirement as they are the only known source with the expertise to perform this adjustment which requires perfect knowledge of non-obvious embedded firmware resident on the sensor. The NAICS Code is 541712 with a Size Standard of 500 employees. Notwithstanding the Government’s intent to negotiate this requirement on a single source basis under the authority of 41 USC 253 (1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, all responsible sources may submit a statement of technical capabilities which shall be considered by the agency. Information submitted in response to this notice must be in sufficient detail to permit agency analysis to establish a bona fide capability to meet the requirement. Responses to this notice may be submitted via email to cheryl.coxen@nist.gov, no later than 12:00 noon, November 28, 2008, Eastern Standard Time or fax to 301-975-3839. 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. Reference SB200000-9-02201 in your response. No oral inquiries will be honored.
