Safety Shower and Eyewash Corrections Phase 1The Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking a small business contractor to perform Design-Build services for corrective upgrades to emergency eyewash and safety shower systems across its Boulder, Colorado campus, under solicitation 1333ND26RNB190015. The project centers on bringing non-compliant fixtures into alignment with ANSI Z358.1-2014 standards, with Building 22 designated as the base scope and four option CLINs covering Buildings 25, 42 (Central Utility Plant), 1, and 2. The contractor must evaluate existing conditions, develop engineered designs, coordinate extensively with NIST staff and building occupants to minimize operational disruption, and execute construction while protecting sensitive equipment and infrastructure. All work must adhere to NIST’s Site Standard Specifications and General Contractor Requirements, including strict security protocols requiring visible identification badges for all personnel due to the restricted nature of the campus. The contract is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 238220 and will be awarded as a Firm-Fixed-Price contract based on best value, with technical approach, key personnel qualifications, and schedule feasibility prioritized over price. The contractor must demonstrate an ability to mobilize within 10 calendar days of notice to proceed and complete all work within 180 calendar days, with an estimated notice to proceed date of August 15, 2026. Proposals must include a detailed Plan of Approach not exceeding 20 single-sided pages with specific content on means and methods, material data, proposed schedules, quality control, safety procedures, a communications diagram, and a comprehensive list of subcontractors. Price proposals require fully completed SF 1442 forms with detailed labor, material, overhead, and profit breakdowns. Key personnel requirements mandate a Project Manager with ten years’ experience on similar projects, a Site Superintendent capable of managing utility outages within an eight-hour limit during site shutdowns, and a Safety Manager with OSHA 30-hour certification and five years of safety-specific experience. The contractor must also provide performance and payment bonds, maintain required insurance per FAR clauses, comply with Buy American specifications, and adhere to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers safety standards for fall protection. All invoices must be submitted electronically to invoice@nist.gov with precise formatting including contract number, CLIN, UEI, and detailed line-item descriptions. Offerors must maintain active SAM registration with accurate small

Pitchbook software subscriptionThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information on potential sources for a PitchBook software subscription to support its CHIPS Research and Development Office, which relies on the platform for comprehensive venture capital, private equity, and M&A transaction data across multiple critical programs including CHIPS SBIR, the National Semiconductor Technology Center, and Research Security and Safeguarding International Science. NIST has determined that PitchBook Data Inc. is the only provider capable of delivering the unique, proprietary features of its platform—including real-time direct data, an Excel plugin for customized modeling, and a specialized desktop interface—that are essential to ongoing operations and cannot be replicated by any alternative solution. Without an alternate source identified, NIST intends to proceed with a sole source award to PitchBook under FAR 13.106-1(b), with the NAICS code 513210 and a $47.0 million size standard. Responses to this notice must include company details, capability statements, authorization documentation if applicable, small business status, relevant federal contracts, experience records, and any additional market research information, but must not contain proprietary data. Responses are due by July 23, 2026, and must be submitted via email in Word, Excel, or PDF format to the designated points of contact. Any questions about the requirement must be submitted by 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the same date and will be addressed collectively in an amended notice. This notice is strictly for market research and does not constitute a solicitation, invitation to quote, or commitment to award a contract. NIST will evaluate all submissions to inform future acquisition decisions and retains the right to use the information provided for any purpose it deems necessary. Respondents are advised that they will not be reimbursed for any costs incurred in preparing their responses, and no obligation is created by this notice beyond the conduct of market research.

4 Kelvin Closed Cycle CryostatThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), through the Department of Commerce, is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of supplying a 4 Kelvin Closed Cycle Cryostat for use in the characterization of superconducting devices and circuits by the Spin Electronics Group within the Physical Measurement Laboratory. This effort is formally categorized as a Sources Sought announcement, not a solicitation for quotes or proposals, and is intended solely to gather information on available commercial capabilities, manufacturing origins, and delivery timelines to inform future procurement decisions. The required cryostat must achieve a base temperature below 3 K, provide over 1.5 watts of cooling power at 4.5 K, and feature a sample space of at least 250 mm in diameter and 225 mm in height, with peak-to-peak temperature variations less than 50 mK and cool-down/warm-up times under two hours. All necessary cooling hardware, thermometry, heaters, and temperature controllers must be included. Additionally, a separately priced option is sought for a 1 Tesla split coil magnet with a bore greater than 110 mm, superconducting high-current leads, and appropriate vacuum feedthroughs. Responses must include the company name providing and manufacturing the product, the country of origin, technical specifications, typical lead time after order receipt, and supporting documentation, all limited to four pages and submitted electronically to Angela Hitt at angela.hitt@nist.gov by the deadline of June 26, 2026. The government is particularly interested in identifying U.S.-based manufacturers and will consider all small business set-aside categories, but no contract award is guaranteed. If a future procurement is initiated, delivery of the system, including installation and training, must be completed no later than 12 months after receipt of order, and all items must be shipped in original manufacturer packaging. Warranty requirements specify a minimum one-year manufacturer warranty, and travel costs, if required, must be separately itemized and reimbursed under the Federal Travel Regulation. No quotes will be accepted or considered during this phase, and marketing materials are explicitly excluded from review.
