About this file
This is an event document related to Montana State University's consideration of a sole source contract award to Teledyne Princeton Instruments for a spectrometer system requested by the physics department. The document appears to reference an event or proceeding related to the contract opportunity evaluation process. The spectrometer system represents specialized scientific equipment intended for use by the physics department's research and educational programs. While specific contract timeline details such as response deadlines, bid submission dates, site visits, or bidders' conferences are not explicitly detailed in the available file information, the sole source nature of the procurement indicates that Montana State University has determined Teledyne Princeton Instruments as the only qualified vendor capable of meeting the department's technical requirements.
The procurement is being conducted as a sole source award, which exempts it from competitive bidding procedures and streamlines the contracting process. No pricing information, set-asides, incumbency details, or specific funding amounts and sources are outlined in the referenced file materials. The acquisition appears to be driven by the physics department's specialized technical requirements that can only be met by Teledyne Princeton Instruments' spectrometer system, suggesting unique or proprietary capabilities necessary for the intended research or instructional applications at the university.
