About this opportunity
NIST intends to award a noncompetitive contract to EffecTech for delivery of Non-SGS Luxfer Brand aluminum gas cylinders by September 2026 under a sole-source procurement. The cylinders must maintain chemical stability of gas mixtures for a minimum of 10 years, with demonstrated stability beyond 30 years required for certain cylinders to support the Material Measurement Laboratory's gas standard reference materials and traceable reference materials programs. Government market research has identified Luxfer Non-SGS aluminum cylinders as the only cylinders capable of meeting these long-term chemical stability requirements; no alternative sources exist within the United States. The work will be performed at NIST's Gaithersburg, Maryland location. NIST will award using Simplified Acquisition Procedures on a Firm-Fixed Price basis. Responsible sources that believe they can meet the requirements are invited to submit capability demonstrations to Contracting Officer Donald Graham (donald.graham@nist.gov, 301-975-6753) by September 18, 2026. The Government reserves the right to modify any aspect of the acquisition strategy, requirements, estimated value, contract type, or solicitation schedule.
