Visible range continuous wave tunable laserThe Department of Commerce is forecasting the procurement of a high-power, single-frequency, continuous wave laser system to support the Nano Spectroscopy Group's research into color center science. This equipment is essential for measuring photoelectrically and optically detected magnetic resonance in diamond as part of the SI-Traceable Vector Magnetometry for Secure Navigation initiative. The required system must be mode hop free and provide gap-free tunable wavelengths across four specific spectral regions: 450-525 nm, 540-650 nm, 900-1050 nm, and 1080-1300 nm, with a power output exceeding 200 mW. The laser will be utilized for photoluminescence and photoelectric spectroscopic studies of semiconductors and diamond under various temperatures and magnetic or electric fields. To ensure operational success, the system must be fully compatible with existing electronic and spectroscopic infrastructure. The performance of this contract will take place in Gaithersburg, and the procurement is categorized under NAICS code 333298.

AI Contract Overview

Sandia National Laboratories is seeking qualified suppliers for the detailed design, fabrication, and installation of a 20 inch actuator system and an airgun system to be used for mechanical shock testing at their Albuquerque facility. The project involves utilizing existing design concepts developed by Sandia and Seco-Dyn, Inc. A formal solicitation is expected around August 1, 2005, with a contract award anticipated in September 2005. Detailed designs must be completed by November 2006. Due to funding constraints, fabrication cannot begin before January 2008, with final delivery and acceptance required by October 31, 2008. Because of this timeline, Sandia will use comprehensive engineering estimates as a baseline for negotiating final prices rather than requiring firm fixed-price quotations. Interested parties must submit a statement of qualifications detailing their relevant experience and capabilities to Kevin Kartchner by July 22, 2005, to be considered for the formal solicitation.

Full Description

Sandia National Laboratories (Sandia), a government-owned, contractor-operated facility located on Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has a requirement for both a 20" actuator system and an airgun system, both of which are to be used in mechanical-shock testing operations in Building 6570 within Sandia's Tech Area III. Sandia has basic designs for both systems, having itself developed the design concept for the actuator system and having contracted with Seco-Dyn, Inc. of Ontario, California for the design concept for the airgun system. It is Sandia's intention to issue a formal solicitation sometime around August 1, 2005, then to issue a contract sometime in September 2005, for (a) detailed designs (based on Sandia-provided specifications) for both the actuator system and the airgun system, and (b) options for fabrication and installation of the systems at Sandia. (Current versions of the system specifications, in Microsoft Word format, can be obtained by e-mailing Kevin Kartchner, Sandia Contracting Representative, at contact@example.gov .) After awarding the contract, Sandia will require the conceptual designs to be delivered no later than November 30, 2005, and the final detailed designs to be delivered no later than November 2006. However, due to matters related to the availability of funding, fabrication of the systems cannot commence prior to January 2008, whereas delivery, installation, and acceptance must occur no later than October 31, 2008. Therefore, Sandia shall retain the right to exercise its options for fabrication and installation at Sandia through February 29, 2008. Given the considerable passage of time between the anticipated date of contract award and the date by which Sandia must exercise options, Sandia will not require firm fixed-price quotations for fabrication and installation. Rather, Sandia will require a comprehensive engineering estimate for both systems, which it will use as a baseline in negotiating a final price with the supplier at or about the time it exercises its options. The purpose of this sources sought notice is to assist Sandia in preparing a list of qualified suppliers to whom to send the formal solicitation. Interested suppliers, after having obtained and reviewed the specifications, should submit to Sandia a statement of qualifications (SOQ), consisting of no more than ten (10) pages, that describes the supplier's experience and capabilities in terms of designing, fabricating, and supplying similar systems. Suppliers must submit their SOQs to Kevin Kartchner at contact@example.gov no later than July 22, 2005.
