Project Title: Physical Property Measurement System Service Notice ID: NB686010-26-00767 NAICS Code: 334516 - Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION. Introduction This is a Sources Sought Notice for market research purposes only. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from qualified business sources capable of providing maintenance services required on the Quantum Design USA Dynacool system. This notice does not constitute a Request for Quotation (RFQ) or a commitment by the Government to award a contract. Background and Requirements NIST currently requires cryocooler maintenance for the Quantum Design USA Dynacool system (rm 1-3325). The system is used to validate and verify material properties of devices made in the Boulder microfabrication facility (Faint Photonics: verify transition temperatures of superconductors and evaluate single photon detectors; Sources and Detectors: verify operation of superconductors). Timely maintenance is required so that projects will not be stalled. Maintenance of the QDUSA system must be performed by the vendor. This maintenance is meant to restore the cooling power of the cryocooler by exchanging it for a refurbished unit. Purpose of this Notice The purpose of this market research is to determine if any other 3rd party vendors that can provide this maintenance service for the Quantum Design USA Dynacool system (rm 1-3325). Response Instructions Interested parties must submit a capability statement (not to exceed 3 pages) that includes: 1. Company Information: Name, address, Unique Entity ID (UEI), and socio-economic status (e.g., Small Business, SDVOSB, etc.). 2. Technical Capability: Documentation demonstrating the legal right to provide maintenance service for the Quantum Design USA Dynacool system . 3. Authorization: A formal letter of authorization from Quantum Design, Inc. confirming the respondent is a certified third-party service provider. 4. Experience: A summary of at least two (2) similar contracts performed within the last three years involving the Quantum Design USA Dynacool system. Responses are due no later than the date and time posted in this notice. Submit to: de Ionne Jones at deionne.jones@nist.gov
