About this opportunity
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), part of the Department of Commerce, is procuring a 4'x10' optical table for their Mass and Force Group in the Physical Measurement Laboratory. The procurement requires a specialized optical table with specific technical requirements including dimensions of at least 4 feet wide, 10 feet long, and 12 inches thick, featuring a stainless-steel working surface with a standard 1" square grid and 1/4"-20 tapped holes, plus a steel honeycomb lattice interior with passive damping. The table must have a minimum mass of 450 kg, load capacity of at least 200 kg, and be supported by four rigid legs providing a working surface height of 36±2 inches. NIST will use the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method to select the winning contractor. Electronic quotations must be submitted by 11:00 AM Eastern Time on August 22, 2025, to the specified NIST contracting officers, with installation required within 15 weeks after receipt of order.
This solicitation is set aside for Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), and no incumbent contractor information is provided in the documentation. The contract structure includes three line items covering the optical table top, table supports, and shipping/installation services, with payment terms of 100% after installation, acceptance, and successful demonstration of equipment functionality. The equipment must be delivered and installed at NIST's Gaithersburg, Maryland campus in Building 233, Room B143, following a complex 300-foot installation path through multiple hallways and doorways with varying clearances. The installation requires careful navigation through corridors ranging from 64" to 84" in width, including multiple 90-degree turns and specific doorway clearance requirements. While specific contract values are not disclosed in the available documentation, the technical complexity and specialized nature of the optical table equipment suggests a significant procurement value.
