About this opportunity

The University of Wisconsin-Madison's Purchasing Services is soliciting bids for a Field Assisted Sintering Technology (FAST) System for the Engineering Physics Department, to be delivered and installed at 1500 Engineering Drive in Madison, Wisconsin. The procurement seeks a single equipment unit with specific technical requirements, including a maximum pressing force of at least 100 kN, sintering temperatures exceeding 2000C, and sample sizes between 20-40 mm in diameter. Bidders must have three years of experience providing FAST systems and services and must be original manufacturers, authorized distributors, or dealers with service and repair capabilities. The RFB was issued on January 7, 2020, with written questions due by January 14, 2020, and bids due by 2:00 p.m. CST on January 22, 2020. The university reserves the right to require oral presentations, product demonstrations, and/or on-site visits prior to award, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest extended net total bid judged to be in the best interest of the university.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must provide a Client Reference List with at least three business references and certify compliance with procurement regulations, including non-collusion attestations, conflict of interest statements, and debarment status. The university qualifies for governmental and educational discounts, which must be reflected in unit prices. The contractor is required to maintain commercial liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 and must comply with federal and Wisconsin state laws. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the bid requires comprehensive pricing that includes packing, freight, insurance, setup, instruction, operation manuals, delivery, and installation charges on an F.O.B. Destination Installed basis. The university indicated a preference for an internal integrated cooling system, though external heat exchanger systems or separate chiller units are acceptable alternatives. A minimum one-year warranty is required for the equipment.
