After results of this market research are obtained and analyzed and specifications are developed for an Annual Service Agreement Contract for a 600 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectrometer that can meet NIST's minimum requirements, NIST may conduct a competitive procurement and subsequently award a Purchase Order. If at least two qualified small businesses are identified during this market research stage, then any competitive procurement that resulted would be conducted as a small business set-aside. NIST has a need for an Annual Service Agreement Contract for a 600 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectrometer that would meet the following requirements: 1.The contractor shall provide parts and labor to maintain full console service, magnet service, BCU05 cooling unit service, case 24 autosample service, 5-mm BBI probe service and 5-mm BBO probe service on the NIST 600 MHz NMR system. Such service will include user-assistance, trouble shooting, and repairs and replacements as necessary to keep the instrument in proper running condition. NIST is seeking responses from all responsible sources, including large, foreign, and small businesses. Small businesses are defined under the associated NAICS code for this effort, 334516, as those domestic sources having 500 employees or less. Please include your company’s size classification in any response to this notice. Companies that manufacture 600 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectrometer are requested to email a detailed report describing their abilities to janet.lamb@nist.gov no later than the response date for this sources sought notice. The report should include achievable specifications and any other information relevant to your product or capabilities. Also, the following information is requested to be provided as part of the response to this sources sought notice: 1. Name of the company that manufactures the system components for which specifications are provided. 2. Name of company(ies) that are authorized to sell the system components, their addresses, and a point of contact for the company (name, phone number, fax number and email address). 3. Indication of number of days, after receipt of order that is typical for delivery of such systems. 4. Indication of whether each instrument for which specifications are sent to janet.lamb@nist.gov are currently on one or more GSA Federal Supply Schedule contracts and, if so, the GSA FSS contract number(s). 5. Any other relevant information that is not listed above which the Government should consider in developing its minimum specifications and finalizing its market research. Submissions must be received by 1:00 p.m. on July 14, 2009. Original and e-mail submissions are acceptable.
