About this opportunity
This solicitation has been canceled. Originally, Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC (BSA), the operator of Brookhaven National Laboratory under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy, was seeking to procure specialized quantum measurement equipment from Qblox through a firm fixed price request for quotation. The procurement specified two Cluster QSM Ultrastable Source and Measurement modules with DC capabilities featuring 8 configurable input/output channels, plus one DC Cluster Mainframe capable of hosting up to 20 modules with ground-loop free operations and integrated synchronization systems. No substitutions were permitted for these specific Qblox products. Vendors were required to provide all-inclusive pricing covering freight, tariffs, and handling fees, submit published price lists for justification, maintain registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) database, and comply with quality assurance requirements outlined in QA-101. The original response deadline was September 3, 2025, with delivery required by September 26, 2025, to meet year-end procurement sensitivity requirements.
This procurement carried no set-aside designation and was open to all qualified vendors, though the specification of Qblox equipment with no substitutions effectively limited competition to authorized Qblox distributors or the manufacturer directly. The solicitation did not specify contract values or budget ranges, requesting vendors to provide their best pricing including available discounts. The equipment quantities were limited to three total units across the two product types, representing a relatively small-scale procurement. Performance location was specified as Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, where BSA operates the facility under its Department of Energy contract. The procurement fell under NAICS code 334419 for Other Electronic Component Manufacturing and was categorized under PSC code M1HA for Operation of Government-Owned Contractor-Operated R&D Facilities, reflecting the laboratory's research mission and operational structure.
