- Description
- Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Child Health and� Development (NICHD), in support of the work of the National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive, and� Kidney Disease (NIDDK), �is conducting a market survey to determine the availability and technical� capability of qualified small businesses, including 8(a) small businesses, small disadvantaged� businesses, woman-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses or� HUBZone small businesses capable of providing the following (1) new Boston Electronics Fluorescence� Lifetime System. The objective of this purchase is to obtain the ability to understand the physiological neural and� network dynamics of brain cells modulating feeding behavior, which are imperative in the mission of� NIDDK to combat obesity and diabetes. A major obstacle in our overall comprehension of these neural� circuits is the inability to monitor neuromodulation and intracellular molecular signals in real� time in a live animal. The purpose of this requirement is to acquire a two-color fluorescence� lifetime acquisition system that would satisfy three needs for the Lutas Lab: 1) provide immediate� applicability via turnkey, reliable equipment; 2) allow for multiplexing of picosecond-pulse lasers� to perform two-color fluorescence lifetime measurements; and 3) provide control and analysis� software that is easy to use and is reliable. REQUIRED FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS TCSPC Module & R0 Routing Connection Detector and Control Laser Multiplexing Controllers Laser Controllers Laser Modules Optional PC and Remote Set-Up Task Area 1 � Delivery time will be no more than 3 months from when Purchase Order has been sent to� the vendor Task Area 2 � Installation assistance will be provided virtually, no later than 2 weeks after� delivery, unless postponed by request of the government. Task Area 3 � Warranty will be provided by the manufacturer and serviced by their local service� engineer(s), which will be no less than 1 year from completion of installation, covering all� deliverables, labor, labor and travel, minus consumables. Task Area 4 � Training will be provided to lab members on the use and capabilities on a scheduled� (on appointment) basis only. Interested small business firms with the capability and authorization of providing all the required� products and services/support shall submit a capability statement to assist the Government in� determining in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 19.502-2(b)whether this� procurement will be set-aside for any of the programs described above. The intended procurement will be classified under North American Industrial Classification (NAICS)� code 334516 with a size standard of 1000 employees. �All respondents are requested to identify� their firm�s size and type of business. �Interested firms responding to this market survey must� provide (a) capability statement demonstrating their experience, skills and capability to fulfill� the Government�s requirements for the above.
