About this opportunity
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a civilian agency within the Department of Commerce, is seeking to acquire a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to support its CHIPS Metrology Program. The SEM must have specific technical capabilities, including a minimum accelerating voltage of 3 kV and a maximum of at least 30 kV, to enable nanoscale 3D x-ray tomography of nanoelectronics. The SEM must be compatible with a nanopositioning stage and x-ray detectors, and include a solution for cleaning the chamber. The evaluation will be based on technical capability, past performance, and price, with technical and past performance being more important than price. Quotations must be submitted electronically by August 26, 2024.
This is an unrestricted full and open competition, with no set-aside designations. The procurement has a NAICS code of 334516 - Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing, with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees. The contract will be awarded as a firm-fixed-price purchase order, and the SEM must be delivered and installed at NIST's Boulder, CO facility within 75 weeks of contract award. The government has not provided any information about potential incumbents or current contractors.
