The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is soliciting proposals for a firm fixed-price contract to replace the Thermal Column Tank (TCT) at its National Bureau of Standards Reactor (NBSR) facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The selected contractor must supply all labor, materials, tools and procedures to remove the existing TCT, which is leaking, and install a replacement tank provided by NIST. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical approach, experience, past performance, and price. The deadline for questions is July 14, 2023 and final proposals are due by July 28, 2023.

There is no set-aside designation for this procurement. The NAICS code is 541330 for Engineering Services and the PSC code is not specified. The replacement work is to be completed within 18 months of award at the NBSR facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Key deliverables for the contractor include engineered tooling designs, removal and installation procedures, shielding calculations, and reports. The TCT weighs approximately 2,500 pounds and the replacement work will take place while minimizing radiation exposure for personnel within the reactor facility.
