- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Acquisition Management Division, on behalf of the NIST Sensor Science Division, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Konica Minolta Sensing Americas, Inc., located in Ramsey, NJ under the authority of FAR Subpart 13.106-1 (b), soliciting from a single source. The Sensor Science Division has a calibration need for spectral radiant intensity, spectral irradiance, total spectral radiant flux, and correlated color temperature of light sources. The required high-accuracy CCD array Spectroradiometer shall be used for fast calibration of light sources for total spectral radiant flux. To maximize the research capabilities, the CCD array Spectroradiometer must be 100% compatible and interchangeable with an existing Instrument Systems Spectroradiometer and parts currently used in the NIST gonio-spectroradiometry facility, for which more than 10 characterization and evaluation tests have been performed and more than 20 LabVIEW programs to control the spectroradiometer have been developed. These programs will be used for the new Spectroradiometer as well, both aiding efficiency and reducing costs. Konica Minolta Sensing Americas is uniquely qualified as they are the only authorized source in North America that can provide this equipment. There are no other authorized distributors or re-sellers. Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Gaithersburg, MD., and provided within 3 months from date of an award. The NAICS Code is 333314 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 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.
