- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Acquisition Management Division, on behalf of the Quantum Measurements Division, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Energetiq Technology, Inc. located in Woburn, MA under the authority of FAR Subpart 13.106-1 (b), Soliciting from a Single Source. The Quantum Measurements Division requires a Laser Drive Light Source for use with their Fourier transform spectrometers for radiometric calibration as a background light source for absorption spectroscopy. The light source must be able to meet the following specifications: (1) Spectral distribution: 170nm to 2400nm (2) Broadband optical power: 0.5W (3) Spectral radiance: >7 mW/mm^2/nm/sr from 250nm to 1000nm (4) Standard 120 power requirements (5) Chiller and plate to maintain temperature of light source to within +-0.1 deg C, required to maintain the spectral radiance to <1% The above requirements can only be met using a laser driven light source, as all other sources in the marketplace either do not meet the required spectral radiance or do not cover the required wavelength range. Energetiq Technology, Inc. is uniquely qualified to meet all of the required specifications as they have patented the laser driven light source technology. Energetiq Technology, Inc. has no other authorized distributors or resellers and is the only source that can supply the required laser driven light source. The NAICS Code is 335129 with a size standard of 500 employees. NIST anticipates negotiating and awarding a firm-fixed-price purchase order for this requirement. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by the established date and time. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon 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.
