Illuminance Sensor and Amplifier

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Lakehurst New Jersey has a requirement for the following items in support of the NAVAIR Metrology and Calibration METCAL Program, Aviation Fleet Intermediate Calibration Activities, Fleet Training Activities and Aviation Navy Calibration Laboratories: Gamma Scientific PN 4710B Illuminance Sensor and Amplifier, Quick Release Front End For Luminance Hood Attachment, qty one (1); Gamma Scientific PN 1120V Luminance Head w/ 50mm Lens and 6 different measurement apertures of 1/10, 1/3, 1/2, 1, 2, and 5 degree field-of-view, qty one (1); 19847-1USB Single TEC Controller with Front Panel Direct Readout and USB Interface, qty one (1); Gamma Scientific PN 5000-17 Lamp alignment Jig for 5000-16 FEL type lamps, qty one (1); PN 5000-18 Kinematic Lamp Socket NIST Design, qty one (1); and PN CAL 2LPH-TIA Photometric filter luminance sensitivity factor with 1120V , qty one (1). The Gamma Scientific standard photometer is used to calibrate multiple models of chromaticity meters, digital radiometers, depot level photometers, various standard lamps and numerous misc in-house Illuminance standards at the Navy Primary Standards Laboratory. The requested components comprise a primary measurement system used by the Navy Primary Standards Laboratory (NPSL) San Diego CA. The system will be used to accommodate additional workload and act as a backup for the existing system. The requirements are as follows: Manufacturer one year warranty, with sticker affixed to each unit, plus warranty certificate; Mfr Calibration and calibration sticker (as applicable for each unit) or Certificates of Conformance; units shall be serialized; units (over $5,000) shall have a UID Label applied per DFAR 252.211-7003; and Operating and Servicing Manuals and/or data sheets shall be provided with each unit. Gamma Scientific is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the above listed components that comprise a high accuracy, wide wavelength range and very low uncertainty standard photometer. Data, drawings or other specifications are proprietary to Gamma Scientific and are not available to the government. As such, this requirement does not permit full and open competition. All support for these model numbers has previously been established and paid for by the government. The Government intends to procure the above items under the authority of 10 USC 2304 (c) (1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.
