- SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE AMDTC-16-009 Document Type: Sources Sought Notice Notice Number: AMDTC-16-009 Response Deadline: February 29, 2016, 3:00 PM, EST. Title: NIST Standard Reference Material Cigarette (SRM) 1196 for NIST Engineering Laboratory (EL) Anticipated NAICS Code: 312230, Tobacco Manufacturing Contracting Office Address National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Office of Acquisition and Agreements Management Acquisition Management Division 100 Bureau Drive, Mail Stop 1640 Gaithersburg, MD 20899-1640 This Notice is for planning purposes only and is not a Request for Proposal, Request for Quotation, or an obligation on the part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for conducting a follow-on acquisition. NIST does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this Notice, or otherwise pay for the information requested. No entitlement or payment of direct or indirect costs or charges by NIST will arise as a result of submission of responses to this Notice and NIST use of such information. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking to identify small businesses capable of providing the next batch (a 10 year supply) of SRM 1196 cigarettes. The SRM 1196 shall have the same physical specifications of the current test cigarette (CTC). This particular cigarette had been selected because early data indicated that it had the highest ignition propensity of any of the cigarettes examined. Consumer Products Safety Commission's (CPSC) federal standard for mattresses and mattress pads (16 CFR part 1632), proposed standard for upholstered furniture (16 CFR part 1634), and flammability standard for cellulose insulation (16 CFR part 1209) all require using SRM 1196 cigarettes.
