Full Description

This notice is issued by The SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, located in Menlo Park, California. We are soliciting responses from interested parties to provide all personnel, materials, equipment, facilities and services required to complete engineering, design, documentation, fabrication, assembly, installation and acceptance testing of the X-ray Correlation Spectroscopy (XCS) Instrument Diffractometer System. The LCLS-LUSI XCS diffractometer system will be used to precisely control the physical location and orientation of a sample but also align the sample in the x-ray beam. The nature of the LCLS-LUSI XCS Instrument requires an extraordinary level of flexibility and accuracy from the diffractometer system. The diffractometer consists of two major components, the sample goniometer (purpose of this document) and a local detector (provided by SLAC, but its motion is included in this scope of this document) to aid the alignment of the sample in the x-ray beam. The sample goniometer must have the ability to position the sample within two widely separated interaction point regions. The system must incorporate features to enable the use of future sample vacuum environments such as a cryostat or cryo-stream. The diffractometer system design must enable rapid reconfiguration to maximize science output. Vendors interested in performing this requirement are invited to provide the following information to SLAC Purchasing Office no later than 20 May 2009. The information may be submitted via email to the Contract Administrator at contact@example.gov or faxed to +1 (555) 000-0000. Responses shall include the following information: Reference number XCS_DIFF052009, Company name, DUNS Number, address, point of contact, phone number and email address; business size, disadvantage, 8(a), or HUBzone status; and , Evidence that the contractor has performed similar projects (past performance history). NO TELEPHONE OR WRITTEN REQUESTS FOR SOLICITATIONS OR POSTING STATUS. This posting is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as commitment by SLAC nor will SLAC pay for information solicited. No basis for claim against SLAC shall arise as a result from a response to the Sources Sought or SLAC use of any information provided. SLAC reserves the right to consider a small business, 8(a) or any other set aside arrangement as deemed appropriate for this procurement.
