The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-76. 1352.215-72 INQUIRIES (APR 2010) Offerors must submit all questions concerning this solicitation in writing to divya.soni@nist.gov. Questions should be received no later August 25, 2014. Any responses to questions will be made in writing, without identification of the questioner, and will be included in an amendment to the solicitation. Even if provided in other form, only the question responses included in the amendment to the solicitation will govern performance of the contract. (End of Provision) The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334516 with a small business size standard of 500 employees. This acquisition is 100% set-aside for small business. Background: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Engineering Laboratory (EL)'s Materials and Structural Systems Division (MSSD) carries out experimental research on large-scale engineered structural systems undergoing material degradation, and subjected to man-made and natural hazards, such as terrorist attacks, extreme winds and earthquakes. The goal of the research by MSSD is to improve safety and welfare of the general public by meeting standards needs for construction, thereby enhancing economic prosperity and improving the quality of life. There is a need to expand the data acquisition system to support new areas of research to characterize long-term performance of critical infrastructure for durability and safety. To support a wide range of measurement needs NIST/EL has invested significant effort to develop accurate, dynamic and flexible data acquisition (DAQ) systems implementing National Instruments' DAQ and control hardware. Currently, the Structural Laboratory is carrying out a research program on evaluating the degradation of concrete infrastructure resulting from chemical attacks and seepage into concrete of deleterious substances. To support this effort, one DAQ system will be dedicated to collect data from unattended laboratory experiments of test specimens instrumented with multiple types of sensors in the EL's large environmental chamber over a period of three years without interruption. Another DAQ system will be dedicated to control and collect data from dynamic load testing of structural subsystems in the Strong-Floor Structure Laboratory over a period of three years. Offerors shall provide firm-fixed-pricing for the following: Line Item 0001: Description: Data Acquisition System #1 in accordance with the attached specifications. Quantity: 1 EA Line Item 0002: Description: Data Acquisition System #2 in accordance with the attached specifications. Quantity: 1 EA See attached solicitation and specifications.
