The Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is soliciting a high-performance computer system under a total small business set-aside (NAICS 334111) to support advanced modeling, simulation, and artificial intelligence research in additive manufacturing. The solicitation, numbered 1333ND26QNB730213 and posted on May 19, 2026, requires responses by May 27, 2026, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time, and is structured as a combined synopsis and solicitation. The system must meet stringent technical specifications including a 64-core AMD Threadripper Pro 7985WX processor, 128 GB of RAM, 7.68 TB of PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage, a NVIDIA RTX 5090 32GB GPU (or equivalent), and 100 GbE networking to enable concurrent operation of multiple large language model configurations. Delivery is expected within 30 days of contract award, with the system to be delivered F.O.B. Destination to NIST’s Shipping and Receiving facility in Gaithersburg, MD, followed by acceptance testing at the Additive Manufacturing Research Center. The contractor must submit a Hardware Validation Report prior to delivery, provide training for up to five personnel within 30 days of installation, and ensure the system passes a 48-hour burn-in test under maximum load. The contract will be awarded using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, where technical acceptability is a mandatory threshold, and price is the deciding factor among qualified offerors. The solicitation mandates full compliance with FAR 52.212-4 for commercial items, including warranty and inspection provisions, and incorporates specific socioeconomic clauses reinforcing the total small business set-aside, requiring offerors to self-certify their small business status and, if applicable, their eligibility under WOSB, EDWOSB, SDVOSB, or HUBZone programs using their Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) registered in SAM. Offerors must submit a two-volume electronic quotation: Volume 1 must contain documentation demonstrating technical conformance to the Statement of Work, and Volume 2 must include the commercial price list shown to the most favored customer. Invoices are to be submitted electronically via the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) or to [email hidden],

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.
