About this opportunity

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is soliciting quotations for an advanced infrared microscope for its Physical Measurement Laboratory, with a specific focus on imaging defects at buried interfaces on silicon wafers and chips. The solicitation seeks a commercial-off-the-shelf system that can operate in both infrared and visible light spectrums, with detailed technical requirements including specific objective lens configurations, camera specifications, and a motorized XY stage. Vendors must submit four-volume quotations covering technical capabilities, demonstrated experience, pricing, and terms and conditions, with non-price factors weighted more heavily than price. The government will evaluate quotations using a confidence rating system and will prioritize systems offering higher infrared imaging resolution, sensitivity, image contrast, and advanced software analysis capabilities. Quotations are due by 11:00 AM Eastern Time on May 22, 2025, and must be submitted electronically to the Contract Specialist Tracy Retterer and Contracting Officer Forest Crumpler.

The contract is an unrestricted competitive procurement with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. The place of performance is located in Gaithersburg, MD 20899, and the government requires delivery within 10 weeks after receipt of order (ARO). Payment terms are net 30 days, with 100% payment contingent upon installation and acceptance of the microscope system. The procurement will result in a firm-fixed-price purchase order, with the government reserving the right to award without discussions based on initial quotes. The microscope must include specific technical components such as two cameras (one cooled IR camera and one color camera), objectives operating in IR and visible light (5x, 10x, 20x, 50x), a motorized XY stage with 100mm range, and a Windows 11 computer control system, all of which will be subject to performance tests and evaluations by NIST.
