Description

The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) seeks information on vendors that are capable of providing a chemical ion source for mass spectrometry. For identification and sensitive detection of analytes in an unknown sample, analysis by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry must be performed. The chemical ionization (CI) source upgrade is necessary to enhance the performance of the Agilent instrument already in service at NIST. The source accessory must be compatible with this existing instrument. The purpose of this notice is to identify organizations capable of providing the necessary items and meeting the minimum contractor qualifications. This announcement is not a Request for Proposals or Quotes (RFP/RFQ) and does not commit the Government to award a contract now or in the future. The information contained in this notice is DRAFT only and as such, is subject to change prior to issuance of a solicitation.

This requirement is assigned a NAICS code of 334516 with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees. Interested business organizations that believe they are capable of meeting the requirement should submit electronic copies of their capability statement. Please limit responses to four (4) pages or less. Responses should include the following information: 1. Name of company that will provide product. 2. Name of company that will manufacture the product. 3. Spec sheets and examples of products that meet the specifications. 4. Typical lead time to deliver the product after receipt of order. 5. Any other relevant information that is not listed above which the Government should consider in developing its minimum specifications and finalizing its market research. Any proprietary information should be so marked. The written capability statement should be received by the Contracting Officer, Angela Hitt by email at Angela.Hitt@nist.gov no later than 2 p.m. MST Tuesday, June 23, 2020.
