Place of performance is Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, New York. Delivery is anticipated within 20–33 weeks. The procurement requires a modelocked, femtosecond fiber seed oscillator operating at approximately 780 nanometers (second harmonic of 1560 nanometers) with passive modelocking at a subharmonic of 2856 MHz, minimum output energy of 0.5 nanojoules per pulse, spectral bandwidth of approximately 15 nanometers supporting 75 femtoseconds or less pulses, M2 parameter below 1.5, and linear polarization with 10 milliwatts power. The delivered oscillator must comply with ISO 9001 quality system model and US FDA laser product requirements. NAICS code is 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) with a 1,000-employee size standard; PSC is 5860 (Stimulated Coherent Radiation Devices, Components, and Accessories).

Offerors must demonstrate proven capability by providing references for at least two successfully delivered comparable systems with supporting sales history or customer performance data; demonstration models and first-of-a-kind units are not acceptable. Offerors must complete a Compliance Matrix confirming technical performance and specify all electrical and utility requirements. Pricing must be all-inclusive in U.S. dollars, FOB Brookhaven National Laboratory, including freight, import duties, and customs costs. Award goes to the responsive and responsible offeror submitting the lowest total price meeting all technical requirements. Payment terms are Net 10 for small businesses and Net 30 for large businesses. Quotations submit via email with signed Quotation Pricing Sheet to Megan Einhart (meinhart@bnl.gov).
