The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 333312, Optical Instrument and Lens Manufacturing with a size standard of 500 employees. In accordance with FAR 6.302-1, the Government intends to negotiate a sole source contract with Newlight Photonics Inc., 264 Westmoreland Avenue, Toronto ON M6H 3A5 for two customized optically-contacted (no air gaps between pieces) crystal stacks made from Barium Borate (BBO) and Bismuth Borate (BiBO) for use as a quantum computing component.

The Government is contracting for these crystals with Newlight Photonics Inc because they are the only known source. A Sole Source Justification is attached to this notice. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes; however, any firm that believes that it can provide the requirement above may give written notification to the Contracting Office. All inquiries and concerns must be addressed in writing to AFRL/RIKO, ATTN: Bryant Soule, 26 Electronic Pkwy Rome, NY 13441 or sent by email to Bryant.Soule@rl.af.mil.

Responses received will be evaluated; however a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 20 July 2012. Response to this synopsis is not required.
