Notice ID: NB686080-26-00568
NAICS Code: 811210 - Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance
THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION.
1. Introduction
This is a Sources Sought Notice for market research purposes only. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from qualified business sources capable of providing proprietary software updates, technical support, and preventative maintenance for a NIST-owned Hyperfine Swoop MRI System.
This notice does not constitute a Request for Quotation (RFQ) or a commitment by the Government to award a contract.
2. Background and Requirements
NIST currently utilizes the Hyperfine Swoop Portable MRI system for advanced metrology and research applications. The system relies on the Hyperfine proprietary software platform for deep-learning image reconstruction, sequence management, and system diagnostics.
The Government requires a service provider capable of:
Proprietary Software Access: Providing ongoing software patches, firmware updates, and AI-driven reconstruction algorithm upgrades.
OEM-Certified Maintenance: Performing biannual preventative maintenance and emergency repairs using specialized diagnostic tools compatible with the Swoop architecture.
Certified Parts: Sourcing and installing OEM-certified replacement parts (including the 8-channel head coil and specialized shielding components) that maintain FDA-cleared performance specifications.
3. Purpose of this Notice
The purpose of this market research is to determine if any source other than Hyperfine Operations, Inc. (the Original Equipment Manufacturer) possesses the legal authority and technical capability to access the proprietary software and provide the required maintenance without voiding existing warranties or compromising the system-s operational integrity.
