- Description
- FBO ANNOUNCEMENT: PRESOLICITATION NOTICE, NOTICE OF INTENT ACTION CODE: SPECIAL NOTICE SUBJECT: Sole source procurement of a Quartz monitor system SOLICITATION NUMBER: NB642060-20-02992 RESPONSE DATE: 08/04/2020 DESCRIPTION: The Polymer Processing Group of the Materials Science and Engineering Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting significant research in the processing and performance of printed polymeric semiconductors. A new thrust for this research is the study of redox polymers appropriate for use in organic electrochemical transistors that enable novel classes of biosensors. NIST has a requirement for a windowed, electrochemistry module, compatible with existing electronics supporting quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCMD) measurements. In addition to supporting QCMD measurements, the module must allow simultaneous electrochemical and optical (normal incidence reflectance) measurements. Sole Source justification is based on the following: The NIST-owned Biolin Scientific system requires an upgrade and is patented by the manufacturer; the module being added by this action must be entirely compatible with the existing system.� Market research has shown that there are no other instruments that are compatible with the existing system except for that produced by the original manufacturer. ��NanoScience Instruments Inc. is the sole authorized distributor of Biolin Scientific products in the United States.� NAICS code for this requirement will be 334516 � Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing with a small business size of 1000 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties who regard themselves as capable of fulfilling these requirements are invited to submit responses to the Government for consideration. Responses received by 08/04/2020 will be considered by the Government.
