The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Acquisition Management Division, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Kratos Analytical Inc., of Chestnut, Ridge, NY, to purchase a service agreement for a NIST-owned, Axis Ultra DLD Photoelectron Spectrometer, manufactured by Kratos Analytical, Inc.

No other company has the training, necessary data, or parts to perform service on the instrument. The Government intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order with a period of performance of one year and two one-year option periods. The NAICS Code 811219 - Other Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance with a size standard of $20.5M Dollars. No solicitation package will be issued.
