FBO ANNOUNCEMENT: PRESOLICITATION NOTICE ACTION CODE: PRESOL CLASSIFICATION CODE: 66- Laboratory Equipment and Supplies SUBJECT: NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE: Helium Compressor SOLICITATION NUMBER - NB610030-17-03880 RESPONSE DATE: July 23, 2017 CONTACT POINTS: Erica Miller, Contract Specialist, 301-975-0642 Cory Worley, Contracting Officer, 301-975-3635 The United States Department of Commerce (DOC), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Acquisition Management Division (AMD) intends to negotiate a firm fixed purchase contract, on a sole source basis, with Advanced Research Systems, Inc. for a 10 HW helium compressor. The statutory authority of this sole source acquisition is FAR subpart 13.106-1(b). The NIST's NCNR facility maintains and operates a research instrument named MACS. This instrument utilizes a cryogenically cooled filter, named CFX. The filter is cryogenically cooled using an advanced Research Systems Inc. DE-110 Expander, and an Austin Scientific M600 helium compressor. The purpose of this acquisition is to purchase a spare helium compressor for the CFX. This spare compressor will be utilized when and if the current compressor requires repair, and can be used during preventative maintenance to keep the system continuously operational. The new spare compressor shall be a direct factory replacement. The performance requirements are the following for the drop-in replacement compressor. The compressor shall plug compatible with the Advanced Research Systems Inc. DE-110 Expander already installed in CFX filter. The compressor shall provide at least 600 CFM helium thru-put to the Expander. The compressor shall operate on a 208-230 VAC + or - 5%, 3 phase 60Hz Circuit. Delivery shall be FOB destination and take place 6-8 weeks from receipt of order unless mutually agreed upon the Government's ability to receive earlier. This requirement is expected to be awarded in July, 2017. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 1000 employees. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all responsible sources interested may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. In addition, interested sources shall provide an associated standard manufactures warranty with the helium compressor for use with the expander. The Government will consider responses received by 1:00 p.m. Eastern on July 23, 2017. Inquiries will only be accepted via email to erica.miller@nist.gov No telephone requests will be honored. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.

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.
