- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) Soliciting from a Single Source, with Advanced Measurement Technology, Oak Ridge, TN for the purpose of acquiring (2) ORTEC X-Cooler III Electro-Mechanically Cooled Cryostats. This is a sole source requirement inasmuch as NIST's Chemical Sciences Div. presently has (10) fully operational ORTEC High-Purity Germanium (HPGe) Gamma-Ray Detectors that are modular in design and can be used with either liquid nitrogen cryostats or electro-mechanically cooled cryostats. Aging liquid nitrogen cryostats will be replaced with the electro-mechanically cooled cryostats to meet requirements of long-term measurements. Only the ORTEC X-Cooler Electro-Mechanically Cooled Cryostat will seamlessly interface with the existing HPGe Gamma-Ray Detectors. A firm fixed-price purchase order to acquire the (2) Electro-Mechanically Cooled Cryostats will be negotiated and issued on or about September 2, 2016. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. Inquiries will only be accepted via e-mail to randy.schroyer@nist.gov. The government will consider responses received by 5:00PM, EST, 23 Aug 2016. Written responses to this synopsis shall contain sufficient documentation to establish a bona fide capability to fulfill the requirement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement 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 in the future. This Notice of Intent is not a Request for Quotation (RFQ) nor is it a request for competition. No telephone requests will be honored. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334517 and the size standard is 1,000 employees.
