About this file

This is a Technical Compliance Form used by North Dakota State University (NDSU) to evaluate vendor responses for a non-contact optical profilometer system procurement. The procurement seeks a system capable of polymer surface roughness and surface topography measurements to support research on electrically responsive surface textures for autonomous platforms. Vendors must complete all sections of the form and return it with their bid submission, with additional pages attached as necessary and clearly referenced by document name and page number. The form requires delivery completion in Fall 2026 and installation completion by January 2027, with vendors indicating yes or no responses to these timeline requirements and proposing alternative dates if unable to meet the stated schedule.

The Technical Compliance Form functions as an evaluation instrument containing multiple sections: proposed equipment information (manufacturer, model number, configuration, software details), a technical compliance matrix addressing 19 specific requirements with columns for compliance status, exceptions, vendor responses, and supporting documentation references, published performance verification specifications, delivery and installation schedule confirmation, 12 technical narrative response questions addressing instrument identification through commercial configuration verification, a supporting documentation index, and an evaluator section for university use only. The form requires vendors to demonstrate compliance with mandatory technical specifications including working distance between 4mm and 10mm, surface topography repeatability of ±5nm or better, RMS repeatability of 0.5nm or better, operational volume of at least 80mm × 150mm × 150mm, capabilities for measuring transparent film thickness and buried interfaces, image stitching functionality, surface roughness measurement, and polymer surface characterization, along with inclusion of all necessary hardware, software, licenses, installation services, training, on-site support, preventive maintenance, and a minimum one-year warranty. Pricing information is not addressed in this technical compliance document.
