- Description
- The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Engineering Research and Development Center � Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (ERDC-CERL) in Champaign, IL has a requirement for one (1) Alpha-Step D600 Stylus Profiler. ERDC-CERL intends to award a purchase order on a sole source basis to Vacuum One Inc in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). Market research indicates that Vacuum One Inc is the only source for this requirement because The Alpha-Step D-600 stylus profiler manufactured by KLA-Tencor offers high resolution 2D & 3D profiling, 2D stress, profile stitching, and many other features in an easy-to-use platform with the ability to measure from nanometer to millimeter with angstrom resolution. �Market research has found no other commercially available system that offers this same combination of features.� These other features include: An innovative optical lever sensor technology that provides the highest vertical range at 1200 ?m, sub-Angstrom resolution plus low force, 0.03 to 15 mg. The ability to measure a wide range of applications, from nanometer to millimeter steps, high resolution roughness, soft materials, and thin film stress enables the D-600 to serve various industries in research and development and production environments. A 200 mm motorized stage, with 150 x 178 mm X-Y range of motion. New sequencing software features manual deskew alignment and programming up to 1000 locations on a sample. Advanced optics, a high resolution 5 MP camera with a 4x digital zoom and enhanced video controls for highly versatile sample visualization. Market research confirms that KLA does not sell directly to the government but instead uses a network of distributors with one organization assigned to each region of the United States.� The Midwest region distributor is Vacuum One Inc.� Therefore, Vacuum One Inc is the sole source vendor for this procurement. This is not a small business set aside.� This Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however interested parties may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement.
