Full Description

This is a request for a Firm Fixed Price quotation for commercial products. This solicitation is issued in accordance with the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) Part 12 - Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.

This solicitation is a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through the RFO. 



The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334516 – Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. The small business size standard of 1,000 employees. This is a small business restricted competition. Only small businesses under the applicable NAICS code are eligible to respond.



DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENTS

Non-Competitive (Single-sole Source (Including Brand-Name)) Determination:


The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Fire Research Division (FRD), requires a 919 Autosampler for use with its existing 930 Compact Ion Chromatograph (IC). The 919 Autosampler is specifically designed and manufactured for compatibility with the 930 Compact IC and is intended to integrate directly with the existing instrument. The 930 Compact IC is a laboratory analytical system used to separate ions and determine the concentration of the separated ions. The addition of the 919 Autosampler will increase the system’s sample-processing capacity and support FRD’s anticipated higher volume of sample analysis.



Procuring an autosampler from a manufacturer other than Metrohm USA, Inc. presents a significant risk of incompatibility with the existing 930 Compact IC. Differences in mechanical interfaces, electronic connections, software, communications protocols, and instrument control could prevent proper installation, integration, operation, or performance.



Objectives
The purpose of this acquisition is to procure a Brand Name 919 Autosampler attachment for NIST’s 930 Compact IC, including the installation and training services associated with adding the attachment to NIST’s existing system.

Building 215 Clean Room HEPA Filter Replacement
Solicitation # RFI-195000-26-00181
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is conducting market research through a Request for Information for the Building 215 Advanced Measurement Laboratory cleanroom repair and HEPA filter replacement project in Gaithersburg, Maryland. This initiative follows a previous solicitation that failed to produce an acceptable offer, prompting NIST to reassess its acquisition strategy and seek industry feedback on constructability, cost, and schedule feasibility. The project scope involves the modernization of an 1,800 square meter facility, including the replacement of approximately 1,200 HEPA filters, 70 VAV terminal units, and 54 airflow monitoring devices, as well as the installation of 32 exhaust air control valves and associated ductwork repairs, testing, and recertification. A critical component of the project is the proposed phasing plan, which aims to minimize research disruptions by utilizing 19 construction phases, including 18 critical cleanroom outage phases. Each critical outage is currently envisioned as a nine-day window starting Friday evening and requiring 24/7 operations to achieve ready-for-re-occupancy by the following Monday morning. NIST is specifically requesting rough-order-of-magnitude cost estimates and industry input on whether this aggressive outage schedule is realistic or if it creates prohibitive risks and costs. Responses, including company experience and recommendations for improving competition and project execution, are due by October 14, 2026.
