- Description
- USDA, ARS, LSO intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, Nikon Instruments Inc., 1300 Walt Whitman Rd., Melville, NY to purchase a hyperspectral imaging system that is compatible with a Nikon Eclipse 80i upright light microscope. The imaging system must be capable of measuring light energy from across the visible and near infrared portions of the spectrum. The imaging system must produce images with at least 1,000 x 1,000-pixels and at least 12-bits of dynamic range. A back-illuminated EMCCD is preferred. The imaging system must also include software that enables the capture, real-time display, enhancement, and quantification of features in the resulting imagery. The software must also enable the user to define discrete exposures, wavelengths, and bandwidths for data capture. Data must be stored in, or exportable to, generic image formats (e.g., JPEG2000). Quotations should include on-site setup and training. Interested parties should submit written responses including prices and technical data sufficient to determine capability to meet the entire requirement and must be received in this office within 7 calendar days after publication of this notice. It should be noted that no contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice, but will be used to determine if a comparable source more advantageous to the Government is available. If no affirmative written responses are received, negotiations will be held with Nikon Instruments Inc. without further notice. This acquisition is being conducted under the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The anticipated award date is August 22, 2009.
