Intent to Sole Source: Maintenance Support for NIST SPHERE UV Lamp Systems

Solicitation # NIST-NOI-26-7301176

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to sole source a two-year firm-fixed-price purchase order to Excelitas Technologies Corp. for maintenance support of its proprietary NIST 2m and 6-Port SPHERE UV lamp systems located in Gaithersburg, MD, covering the period from September 21, 2026, through September 20, 2028. This acquisition is justified under FAR Part 12.102(a) and 41 USC 1901 due to the exclusive nature of the UV lamp components, specifically the I600 and LH6 models, which are proprietary to Excelitas Technologies Corp. and cannot be serviced or repaired by any other vendor without compromising system functionality, warranty, or calibration integrity. The contractor will be responsible for annual preventative maintenance including replacement of consumables such as magnetrons, bulbs, and dichroic reflectors, as well as as-needed on-site or off-site repairs, operational tuning, and basic training for NIST staff. Support also includes unlimited telephone and email assistance during business hours and one annual line-down service with provision of a loaner system to ensure continuity of operations during major repairs. All maintenance activities must be conducted in compliance with manufacturer specifications and scheduled in advance with the NIST Contracting Officer’s Representative, with formal repair reports submitted within five days of any service. The contractor must transport and handle equipment only as authorized, with NIST responsible for shipping systems to the contractor’s Gaithersburg facility if repairs occur off-site. Any work beyond the defined scope, including additional annual line-down events or repairs requiring major disassembly, requires prior written authorization from a NIST Contracting Officer. The sole source determination is grounded in the technical uniqueness of the SPHERE UV systems, their continuous 95% operational use in critical environmental testing, and the manufacturer’s exclusive control over parts, service protocols, and warranty maintenance. Interested parties may submit capability statements, business information, and SAM registration details to NIST by May 21, 2026, at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, though this notice is not a solicitation and no quotation is being requested.
