About this file
This document is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by UChicago Argonne, LLC, the operator of Argonne National Laboratory, seeking procurement of specialized scientific equipment. The solicitation is for 10 boxes each of two types of cantilevers for atomic force microscopy: Cantilever 1 with a 1.6 MHz resonant frequency and spring constant of 85 N/m, and Cantilever 2 with a 1.5 MHz resonant frequency and spring constant of 6 N/m. Both types require specific technical specifications including silicon tip material, no tip coating, reflective Au or Cr/Au coating, and precise dimensional requirements.
The RFQ, associated with Department of Energy Office of Science Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357, requires vendors to submit quotes by 05/29/2025 at 11:30 pm CST, with responses to include country of origin, shipping costs, lead time, signed documentation, and completed representations and certifications. The procurement follows specific Buy American requirements, mandating that U.S. components must exceed 65% of total component costs for 2024-2028 deliveries. Vendors must provide 100 probes total (10 boxes of 10 probes), with payment terms of net 30 days and shipping F.O.B. Destination.
