O-band Optical FiltersThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is soliciting quotations for two sets of tunable, low-loss, narrow-band optical filters operating in the O-band wavelength range (1270 nm to 1300 nm) to support quantum networking research. The procurement, issued under solicitation number NIST-RFQ-26-7700851 and classified under NAICS code 334413 (Semiconductor and Related Device Manufacturing), is an unrestricted competition open to both small and other-than-small businesses, with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The requirement specifies four units total: two filters with a pass bandwidth of 0.15 nm to 0.20 nm and two with a pass bandwidth of 0.25 nm to 0.30 nm, each requiring a maximum polarization-dependent loss of 0.25 dB, out-of-band suppression of 45 dB or better, compatibility with SMF-28 FC/APC fibers, and an insertion loss not exceeding 2.5 dB. All equipment must be new, with no used or remanufactured items permitted. Delivery is FOB Destination to NIST’s facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland, with all items required to be shipped within twelve weeks of order receipt, and all shipping, handling, and delivery costs must be included in the firm fixed price quote. Quotations must be submitted electronically by June 25, 2026, at noon ET to designated NIST contract personnel and must include two clearly separated volumes: a technical response not exceeding five single-spaced pages in 12-point font, documenting with evidence—such as manufacturer literature—that all specifications are met or exceeded; and a price quotation listing unit and total costs, including any foreign tariffs or additional charges, the UEI number from an active SAM.gov registration (ID Assigned is insufficient), and point of contact details. The evaluation process prioritizes technical capability over price, with submissions failing to fully comply with mandatory performance criteria deemed unacceptable. Price will be evaluated for reasonableness and alignment with the technical proposal, and the award will be made to the offeror providing the best value to the government. Additional compliance requirements include adherence to FAR and CAR clauses on whistleblower rights, organizational conflict of interest, Buy American, combating trafficking in persons, and post-award small business re-representation, with invoicing to be submitted electronically to INVOICE@NIST
