- Description
- NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with NP Photonics, Tucson, AZ, the purchase of two Fiber Lasers. The sole source determination is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) requirement for two fiber lasers, one fiber laser with center wavelength 1050.98 nm and one fiber laser center wavelength 1551.33 nm. Each includes integration with a 10W laser amplifier. NP Photonics is the only vendor that meets our technical requirements. Specifically, no other vendor can meet the NIST requirement for a fiber laser with a linewidth of <5 kHz and optical isolation of more than >40 dB between the seed laser and the amplifier, as well as at the output of amplifier. Market research indicates that NP Photonics is the only known vendor manufacturers these lasers that can meet all specifications. Delivery: 12 weeks after receipt of order. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide equipment that fully meets the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Such documentation will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to conduct a competitive procurement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
