- Description
- NASA/GSFC has a requirement for lateral transfer hollow retroflectors (LTHRs) for use in optical alignment. LTHRs are precision optical alignment devices used for optical metrology (alignment and test.) Minimum requirements include: (a) lateral transfer hollow retroflector, (b) 2 inch clear aperture, (c) 10 inch separation between input and output beams, (d) less than 5 arc second beam deviation and (e) UV enhanced aluminum coating. NASA/GSFC intends to purchase the items from PLX, Inc. LTHRs are a highly specialized type of optical equipment and are manufactured only by PLX. Since PLX holds multiple patents on this optical technology, no other vendor can provide LTHRs or similar devices. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on August 11, 2012. Such capabilities/qualifications 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 compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition is Nancy Abell, 301-286-5867, nancy.a.abell@nasa.gov
