About this award
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded a $74,143.68 firm fixed-price purchase order to Thomas Scientific, LLC for a Sputter & Carbon Thread Coater System on July 29, 2025. The contract, designated OU63-25-NEW-234, calls for delivery to Germany with completion required by September 29, 2025. This award originated from a pre-solicitation market research notice posted by NIST in June 2025 seeking vendors capable of providing coater equipment branded as or equivalent to the Leica EM ACE600 for the agency's Materials Measurement Science Division. The system will be used for sample preparation of non-conductive surfaces prior to electron microscopy, replacing end-of-life equipment at NIST's Gaithersburg facility.
Thomas Scientific, a laboratory supplies and equipment provider based in Logan Township, New Jersey, was selected through full and open competition without set-aside designation. The procurement includes the complete coater system with compatible metal targets (Gold/Palladium, Tungsten, and optional Iridium and Au), a spare sputter source, installation services, and a one-year warranty. This award represents a continuation of Thomas Scientific's established relationship with NIST and demonstrates the company's capabilities in supplying specialized scientific equipment to federal research institutions. The contractor holds significant federal contract vehicles including a $49 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency and a $100 million blanket purchase agreement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
