Alicona Corporation is the only source capable of fully meeting the Government’s requirement. The unique capabilities required are 1.) the instrument shall have a combination motorized tilt and motorized rotation stage unit for automatically acquiring measurement data on complex curved surfaces, and 2.) the aforementioned motorized combination tilt/rotation stage shall be integrated into the data acquisition software such that the acquisition of raw data and subsequent stitching of data (from multiple fields-of-view) rely directly on the data from these stages. The NAICS code for this acquisition is 334516, with a size standard of 1,000 employees. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive quotations. However, responses received by 07/27/2016 3:00 PM Eastern Time will be considered.
