- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.302-1, with Dr. C. Thomas Avedisian of Ithaca, New York, for the development of a new type of chemical reaction based on film boiling needed in the Chemical and Biochemical Reference Data Division at NIST, Gaithersburg, MD. Dr Avedisian is one of the originators of the film boiling reactor concept. It is based on collaborative work carried out by Dr. Avedisian and NIST several years ago while on sabbatical at NIST. Dr Avedisian is also the recipient of an NSF grant to demonstrate the validity of the concept which has been completed. There is no one else in the world capable of carrying out this required work, which represents a generalization of the concepts and thus provide a mean for others to use the methodology. Delivery shall be FOB destination and be completed in accordance with the Contractor's commercial schedule. The North American Industrial Classification system (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 541690, and the size standard is 500 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals; however, interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. Inquires will only be accepted via email to Jennifer.lohmeier@nist.gov. The government will consider responses received by 1:00 p.m., EST, 08/31/09. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed acquisition based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. No telephone requests will be honored.
