This combined synopsis/solicitation is for the following commercial item(s): 0001: Dual Pressure Generation System: QTY 1 Description of requirements for the item to be acquired: To accurately measure the sound speed and the viscosity of fluids, the high-pressure measurement cells must be filled with a fluid or fluid mixture in a known single-phase state so the temperature and pressure of the pump cylinders/pistons must be well known over a temperature range from -30 °C to 100 °C. The pumps must be capable of pressurizing the fluid or fluid mixture at pressures up to 20,000 psia. The pumps must be programmable and interfaced to the instrument control computer to allow the pressure to be changed by the computer between measurements. The rate of pressurization must be programmable and the volume change associated with the pressure change must be known (dispensed volume). The pumps must be corrosion resistant 316 stainless steel or Hastelloy with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) piston seals with no flow pulseation while dispensing a maximum of 60 to 100 ml of fluid or fluid mixture to the measurement cell. The Contractor shall provide two (2) high pressure pumps that meet or exceed the following minimum technical specifications in accordance with the requirements of the attached Statement of Work: TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: • Pressure range: 0-20,000 psia with a pressure transducer that is interfaced to the controller with at most 0.5% uncertainty in pressure; • Flow rate from 0.001 ml/min to 25 ml/min with an uncertainty of at most 0.3 %; • Programmable controller to maintain/change pressure or flow rate or dispensed volume; • Temperature controlled jacket for pump cylinder volume with temperature range from -30 C to 100 C; • Pump cylinder/piston: corrosion resistant 316 stainless steel or Hastelloy with a volume from 60 ml to 100 ml; • Computer interface to pump controller with a RS-232 serial or GPIB (IEEE-488); • Positive displacement piston with no pulsation over entire cylinder volume; • Power 115 VAC, 60 Hz. The requested delivery is 60 days ARO. Delivery is NIST, 325 Broadway, Boulder, CO 80305. Delivery point of contact will be provided upon award. The provision at FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial, applies to this acquisition. Offerors shall meet the technical requirements and deliverable schedule. Quote shall include cost of shipping. The quote must include the following: 1) The technical specifications for the dual pressure generation system 2) The anticipated delivery schedule (ARO) and 3) The fixed-price for the dual pressure generation system with one (1) year warranty for delivery FOB destination. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. The Government will award a fixed price contract based on the following factors: Technical capability, deliverable schedule, and price. Technical capability will be evaluated by how well the proposed products meet or exceed the Government's requirement identified in the attached Statement of Work to include warranty, telephone and online support. Deliverable schedule will be evaluated by now well the required deliverable schedule meets or exceeds the required deliverable schedule stated in the Statement of Work. Technical capability is approximately equal to price. EVALUATION CRITERIA AND BASIS FOR AWARD The Government intends to award a purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible quoter whose quotation, conforming to the solicitation, results in the lowest priced, technically acceptable quote to the Government. The following will be used to evaluate quotations: Technical Acceptability Price TECHNICAL ACCEPTABILITY Technical acceptability will be evaluated and a determination made as to whether the quoted equipment and services can meet all requirements of the Statement of Work including the response times.
