- Description
- THIS IS A PRESOLICITATION NOTIFICATION. In accordance with FAR 5.203(a), this presolicitation notice provides at least 15 days notification that the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) intends to issue a solicitation for a fast neutron spectrometer that consists of an array of 100 detector units specifically designed to detect and discriminate fast neutrons and gamma rays. The scintillation material to be used is a plastic scintillator that is capable of pulse shape discrimination (PSD). PSD is the method by which gamma rays and fast neutrons can be distinguished based on the shape of their scintillation light pulse. The scintillation light produced within the detector will be readout by a photomultiplier tube (PMT). The PMT will interface with a voltage divider PMT base for high voltage biasing and signal readout. Complete technical specifications will be available as part of the solicitation. A firm-fixed-price contract is anticipated. The government intends to use FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items. It is anticipated that the solicitation will be posted to the Federal Business Opportunities web site on or about February 7, 2017. The NRL uses electronic commerce (EC) to issue requests for proposals (RFPs) and amendments to RFPs. Paper copies of the RFP will not be provided. The actual closing date for proposals will be stated in the solicitation when issued. All responsible sources may submit a bid, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.
