- FBO ANNOUNCEMENT: PRESOLICITATION NOTICE, NOTICE OF INTENT ACTION CODE: SPECIAL NOTICE CLASSIFICATION CODE: 66 � Instruments and Laboratory Equipment SUBJECT: Gas Mixing & Delivery SOLICITATION NUMBER: NB646050-23-02277 DESCRIPTION: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106(b)(1), with Bronkhorst, USA located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania for Gas Mixing & Delivery System. Sole Source justification is based on the following: The Chemical Sciences Division and the Materials Measurement Science Division are involved in a project seeking to deliver a testbed for industrial heterogeneous catalysis based on emerging X-ray characterization methods. The gas handling system is based on a design created by collaborators to perform certain unique functions. This design has been demonstrated using a custom gas mixing and delivery system designed by Bronkhurst USA at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. The system is capable of producing small, short pulses of gases of known quantity and composition that can be quickly cleanly varied or purged. Market research has shown that Bronkhurst USA is the sole distributor of the gas mixing & delivery system. No other instrument meets both technical specifications and compatibility with existing systems. The referenced design has integrated mass flow controllers, pressure meters, shut-off valves, gas connections, a process controller, and electrical connections between all components necessary for effective operation. Given these facts, Bronkhurst USA is the only source reasonably available to provide the required instrument and software. The resulting purchase order will be a Firm-Fixed price award. The NAICES code is 334516 with a size standard of 1,000 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties who regard themselves as capable of fulfilling these requirements are invited to submit a response to the Government for consideration. Responses received by 8/30/2023 @ 11:00am Eastern Standard Time will be considered by the Government.
