About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy's Office of Naval Research has issued a Special Notice (N00173-24-Q-MR23) for the procurement of a TESCAN field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) system. This is a sole-source procurement, as the government has determined that only Tescan USA can provide the required supplies and services.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform interested parties of the government's intent to award a firm-fixed-price purchase order to Tescan USA for the FESEM system. The key requirements include a variable pressure capability, high spatial resolution, automated features, and compatibility with the customer's sample pucks. While this is a sole-source procurement, the government will consider responses that provide clear and convincing evidence of competitive alternatives that can satisfy the agency's requirements. Responses to this notice are due by September 20, 2024, and no reimbursement will be provided for any costs associated with submitting capability information.
