Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center, Pacific (SSC Pacific) formally issues this
combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with
FAR
Subpart 12.6, Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and Solicitation for
Commercial
Items. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY SOLICITATION; QUOTATIONS
ARE BEING REQUESTED, AND A WRITTEN SOLICITATION DOCUMENT WILL NOT BE
ISSUED.
This solicitation is a Request for Quotations (RFQ). The solicitation document
and
incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal
Acquisition
Circular 2005-99 effective 15 June 2018.
The NAICS for this procurement is 334519 with a small business standard size of
500
Employees. The intent of this acquisition is to award a Firm Fixed Price
purchase order,
100% set aside for Small Businesses.
DESCRIPTION OF NEED:
Flexible low noise cryogenic probe - development of Continuously cooled,
flexible,
cryogenic probe for Analyzing biological samples. The instrument shall Consist
of three
main parts: a control unit, which houses All operating hardware and cryocooling
technology, a Flexible cryogenic line to hand held sample probe, and The
temperature
control electronics. At the end of Flexible line, the cryogenic probe will
contain sample
Holder that supports the mounting of two orthogonal Sensors (sensor's geometry
and
footprint to be provided by SPAWAR). Sensors to be cooled and controlled to a
base
Temperature of 77k with but not
limited to: four rf cables (>1ghz) And two twisted pair cables. All electrical
access to
Sample to be available to user via bnc connectors. Sensors to be mounted as
close as
possible to the sample Being studied while still maintaining temperature
integrity.
Required Specifications:
-Must consist of two separate modules (Cryogenic and electronic apparatus
and sensor module)
-Must have continuous cooling capability
-Must be able to operate in the temperature range of 75
-Sensors must not be subjected to electromagnetic interference (EMI) at
extremely low magnetic fields (1012 times smaller than the earth's magnetic
field).
- Sensor module must be non-magnetic and non-metallic
-Sensor module must accommodate two superconducting quantum interference
device array sensors that are mounted orthogonally.
Additionally:
SQUIDS measuring 10x10 mm^2 and 0.2 mm thick will be provided
