About this opportunity
NIST announced a sole-source intent to negotiate a service agreement with Cameca Instruments, located in Fitchburg, Wisconsin, for maintenance of a Cameca IMS1300 large geometry secondary ion mass spectrometer, with a response deadline of May 27, 2026. The procurement will be executed as a firm-fixed price purchase order under FAR Part 12.102(a) and 41 U.S.C. 1901. NIST's Surface and Trace Chemical Analysis Group requires ongoing maintenance to ensure optimal operation of the IMS1300, which performs chemical and structural analysis at micrometers-to-nanometers resolution. The sole-source justification rests on Cameca Instruments' status as the equipment manufacturer, the exclusivity of its factory-trained representatives as the only authorized support providers for the IMS1300 in North America, the absence of authorized third-party resellers for services or spare parts, and the lack of alternative sources. No formal solicitation package will be issued. The Government retains sole discretion to determine whether to pursue competitive procurement based on any responses received. Interested parties should direct inquiries to Latish Walker at the NIST Acquisition Management Division in Gaithersburg, Maryland. NAICS code 811210 applies, with a size standard of 34 million dollars.
