About this opportunity

SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, operated by Stanford University for the Department of Energy, is seeking to procure one optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with specific technical requirements. The OPO must deliver energy per pulse greater than 5 mJ, operate within a wavelength tuning range of 3000-3450 nm with computer control, maintain a 20 Hz repetition rate, and possess single-shot firing capability synchronizable to external timing sources. Additional requirements include compactness within approximately one square foot, 50,000,000 shot durability, 4mm beam diameter, integrated alignment and pump lasers, closed-loop water cooling, turnkey operation, and portability between laboratories. The procurement will be evaluated using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable method with emphasis on lead time, and offerors must provide quoted price, delivery schedule, technical compliance statement, and required certifications. Proposals are due July 3, 2025, with payment terms of Net 30 days and FOB Destination Prepaid and Add freight terms.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and requires a U.S. domestic end item source with Buy American Act compliance certification indicating zero foreign content. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in the solicitation documentation. While no specific award value or budget range is disclosed, the procurement is for a quantity of one unit to be delivered to West Menlo Park, California. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for award and must comply with SLAC's Terms and Conditions for Fixed Price Commercial Supplies and Services dated August 2023. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334519 for Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing and includes comprehensive representations and certifications requirements covering employment verification, export controls, and various federal compliance standards.
