Description
NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE RESPONSE DATE:� 15 days after posting DESCRIPTION: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Techmag Inc, 10161 Harwin Dr Ste 150, Houston, TX 77036 to purchase a 100 MHz solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer. This will allow the Functional Polymers Group in the Materials Science and Engineering Division to develop methods to spectroscopically characterize polymers that are used in technologically relevant devices such as water filtration membranes and polymer composites for infrastructure The sole source justification is based on the following:� Tecmag Inc. is the only manufacturer of solid-state NMR spectrometers that satisfies the government requirements. Tecmag provide solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometers with rf receivers of adequate timing resolution and rf amplifiers with the required wattage (>1 kW) and frequency range (5 to 100 MHz) specified. All other NMR spectrometer manufacturers either do not provide the required amplifier frequency range or do not provide adequate amplifier wattage or receiver timing resolution. Market research has shown that Tecmag Inc is the sole company who can provide this equipment to NIST.� Given these facts, Tecmag Inc is the only source reasonably available to provide the required NRM Spectrometer. The resulting purchase order will be a Firm Fixed Price purchase order. The NAICS Code is 334516 with a size standard of 1,000 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 11:00 am EST, 26 August 2022, will be considered by the Government. 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 normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
