About this opportunity

The Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking to procure 25 digital laser servo controllers for its Ion Storage group within the Time and Frequency Division. The solicitation requires controllers with integrated lock-in functions, automatic lock acquisition capabilities, computer interface for remote adjustment, bandwidth greater than 500 kHz, and fast/slow analog output feedback signals. These controllers will support experimental research on quantum information processing and quantum sensing with trapped ions across multiple projects. The procurement will be conducted as a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation, with quotes required to include technical capability documentation and firm fixed pricing. The electronic quote submission deadline is February 19, 2025, with quotes to be sent to deionne.jones@nist.gov, adhering to Section 889 telecommunications equipment restrictions.

The contract is designated as a total small business set-aside with a size standard of 1,000 employees, targeting vendors in the Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing (NAICS 334516) category. The place of performance is located in Boulder, CO 80305, where the controllers will be delivered. Vendors must provide a delivery timeline of 12 weeks after receipt of order, followed by a 14-day government acceptance testing period. The contract will be awarded as a firm fixed price with FOB Destination shipping terms. While specific award value is not detailed, the procurement is being conducted under simplified acquisition procedures, suggesting a moderate-scale procurement focused on precise scientific instrumentation for quantum research applications.
