Timeline
    Description

    The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) seeks information from businesses capable of supplying a custom Galvanometer scanner system for its Laser Processing Diffraction Testbed (LPDT).

    The key objective is to enhance the LPDT's capabilities by incorporating a high-speed scanner system that meets stringent specifications. The system must be compatible with existing NIST equipment for seamless integration.

    NIST requires a single SCANLAB Galvanometer scanner with specific features, including high acceleration and speed, a digital control interface, and a high positioning resolution. Additionally, the system should include a dynamic focusing unit, F-theta lenses, and a camera adapter. It should support a 1000W laser power and come with a PC interface board and software.

    Respondents to this market research notice should provide a complete company profile and contact details. They should also identify commercial products that align with NIST's objectives and provide manufacturer details, model numbers, and technical specifications. It's crucial not to share proprietary information.

    Companies should highlight how their proposed equipment can meet NIST's requirements and offer insights into any customization possibilities. If there are limitations or aspects of the requirement that cannot be met, they should be outlined along with suggestions for improvements. The response should also indicate the equipment's country of manufacture and any potential changes to the manufacturing location.

    NIST is particularly interested in learning about products that fall under the specified NAICS code: 334515 - Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals. Businesses should indicate their status as small or large entities relative to this code and suggest alternative NAICS codes if applicable.

    Standard terms and conditions of sale, delivery timelines, and warranty details should be included. NIST also seeks to understand if the equipment can be sourced through existing Federal Supply Schedule contracts.

    Companies may provide additional relevant information and indicate if they require further details from NIST to respond adequately. All responses are due by August 1, 2024, and should be concise, limited to five pages.

    NIST reserves the right to use the information provided for its market research purposes and does not guarantee any further obligations or contracts. For inquiries, contact Hunter Tjugum at hunter.tjugum@nist.gov or 303-497-3663.
