Summary of the Solicitation Notice:

SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, which is operated by Stanford University for the Department of Energy, is seeking to procure 16 polarization attenuating gratings made of fused silica with specific technical requirements, including grating period, angle of incidence, and efficiency specifications at 1030 nm. The procurement is not a federal procurement and is not directly subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations, but certain federal laws, executive orders, and regulations may still apply. The source selection will be based on the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable method, and the resulting purchase order will be issued on a fixed-price basis.
