- Description
- The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) seeks information on commercial vendors capable of providing a complete Fiber Laser System with polarized output and an integrated optical isolator for the Quantum Measurement Division, Laser Cooling and Trapping Group. This is a sources sought notice for market research purposes. After the results of this market research are obtained and analyzed and specifications are developed for a system 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. The complete Fiber Laser System will need to meet the following NIST preliminary requirements: 1. 30W Saturated Output Power Fiber laser; 2. Linearly polarized; 3. Output centered near 1064nm; 4. Single frequency (minimum line-width 100kHz); 5. 19" rack mountable housing with front panel display and controls; 6. Computer interface (USB, RS232, Ethernet shall be accepted); 7. Minimum 1m output fiber; 8. Collimated output; 9. Integrated optical isolator at output. 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 and socio-economic status in any response to this notice. Companies that can provide the equipment listed above are requested to email a detailed report describing their abilities to joni.laster@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 joni.laster@nist.gov are currently on one or more GSA Federal Supply Schedule contracts and, if so, the GSA FSS contract number(s) and 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.
