THIS IS A COMBINED SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE AND NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE***
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a Microscale Thermophoresis Instrument. If no alternate sources are identified, the Government intends to issue a Sole Source Award to NanoTemper Technologies Inc., 400 OYSTER POINT BLVD, STE 336, SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94080, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing with a size standard of 1, 000 Employees.
The Biomolecular Structure and Function (BSF) Group requires a Microscale Thermophoresis (MST) instrument to support measurement science for biomanufacturing and formulated biotherapeutics. The requirement is for a solution-phase, non-flow, temperature-gradient-driven (thermophoretic) measurement platform capable of characterizing molecular transport and structural changes in both purified systems and complex solution environments. For a unified measurement framework, the instrument must provide both intrinsic fluorescence (label-free) and fluorescently labeled detection capabilities within a single integrated MST platform, allowing direct comparison of measurements while maintaining a consistent analytical methodology.
