AI Contract Overview
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is soliciting proposals under solicitation 75N98026Q00689 for the acquisition of one fully automated, mode-locked Ti:Sapphire laser source with DeepSee dispersion compensation. This equipment is required for the NHLBI Muscle Energetics Laboratory to restore the operation of a Leica multiphoton microscope used for live muscle cell imaging. The procurement is being conducted as an unrestricted, full and open competition for commercial items under FAR Subpart 12.6, with the intent to award a firm-fixed-price purchase order based on best value. The period of performance is scheduled from July 6, 2026, to January 6, 2027, with all delivery, installation, and training to be completed within 180 days after receipt of order. Technical requirements specify a tuning range of 690 to 1040 nm, pulse duration under 100 femtoseconds, and peak power exceeding 266 kW at 800 nm. The awardee must provide a one-year unlimited-use warranty and ensure seamless beam alignment with the existing Leica microscope system. A key provision of the solicitation is a trade-in option for a decommissioned Spectra-Physics MaiTai HP DS laser, which will be factored into the net price evaluation. Award decisions will be based on a trade-off process where technical capability, past performance, and delivery schedule are collectively considered significantly more important than price. Proposals must be submitted electronically by July 2, 2026, and include technical and price proposals, past performance data, and SAM registration certifications.
