- Description
- The United States Department of Commerce (DOC), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Acquisition Management Division (AMD) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, with Zurich EKSPLA-USA, Inc., 201 South Wallace, Suite B-2C, Bozeman Montana, 59715 the purchase of one (1) base and four (4) option years of service/maintenance contract for NIST owned OPO laser system to be utilized by NIST�s Physical Measurements Laboratory (PML). The statutory authority for this acquisition is 41 USC 3304(a)(1); FAR 13.106-1(b). The scope of work for this order is a service/maintenance contract for NIST owned OPO laser system (MODEL NT242-SH/SFG-SCU, S/N PGD033) custom-made by Ekspla, Vilnius, Lithuania. The vendor is to provide all labor, materials, and equipment at the NIST facility in Gaithersburg, MD.� Maintenance and repair work are intended to keep the equipment operating to its original manufacturer�s specifications unless otherwise noted. Inquiries to the manufacturer about a potential servicer of their equipment revealed that EKSPLA USA is the only company in the United States authorized to complete maintenance or conducting training on the equipment. If this maintenance was to be conducted by another third party vendor the warranty on the product would be void and thus potentially cost a duplication of cost for the Government. Performance shall occur at the NIST Gaithersburg, MD campus within twelve (12) months after receipt of order with four (4) options each with a twelve (12) month period of performance each following the initial twelve (12) months. *****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 811219 � Other Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with a small business size standard of 22 million in revenue. *****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 be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.� *****No solicitation package will be issued.� This notice of intent is not a request for quotations; however, all responsible sources interested may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. Interested parties that believe they can satisfy the requirements listed above must identify their capability in writing before the response date of this notice. Only responses received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on January 22, 2022 will be considered by the government. �Responses shall be submitted via email to tracy.bisson@nist.gov or forest.crumpler@nist.gov
