About this file
This is an amendment to a federal contract solicitation for a Confocal Super Resolution Instrument. Amendment 01 modifies the original B1 RFQ 477108 and related contract documents.
The quote due date has been extended from 8 June 2026 to 20 July 2026. Paragraph 2.1a (Qualifiers) has been corrected to require offerors to provide references for at least three successfully fabricated, tested, and delivered super resolution optical microscope systems of comparable complexity, rather than electron microscope systems as originally stated. The references must include the organization name, contacts, phone numbers, and email addresses. The Final Technical Design deliverable in both the Draft Contract (para A, line item 5) and the Statement of Work (para 5, line 5) has been updated to read "Final Technical Design (subject to BSA confirmation/approval)" to clarify that the deliverable requires government approval. Additionally, the amendment provides nine questions and answers addressing vendor requests to delete or modify various SOW sections, including Design and Design Review Requirements (para 3.2), Manufacturing Requirements (para 3.3), Management (para 3.4), contractor supply requirements (para 3.8.2.2), Pressure Safety (para 3.8.3), Attachment Points and Lifting Fixture (para 3.8.5), Radio Frequency Safety (para 3.8.6), and Quality Assurance (para 4). The government's standard response requires vendors to indicate whether they can or cannot provide the information requested in these sections rather than deleting them.
