Tender Details

Description

The purpose of this sources sought notice is to conduct market research and identify potential sources of commercial products/services that satisfy the Government-s anticipated needs.

BACKGROUND

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), requires instruments for acoustic primary measurement standards. This work is led by NIST-s Mass and Force Group in the Quantum Measurement Division, which carries out research for improved metrology of mass, force, and dynamic mechanical quantities to meet the needs and demands of U.S. industry, government, and the scientific community.



Ongoing mission-critical work includes the development of acoustic primary measurement standards. The refractive index sound standard project exploits the interplay between sound waves and light to create what may become a new, more accurate and flexible standard for measuring sound. The refractive index sound standard project requires a space for developing an expanded scope of measurements in the critical areas of infrasound, coupler-geometry, and broadband time-domain (high-throughput) techniques. A laboratory has been emptied and renovated for this purpose; completion of this project requires the purchase and installation of a new optical table in the laboratory. The optical table must be sufficiently sized, rigid, and damped to provide a platform for future opto-acoustic measurements in which vibrations are generated on the table.



NIST is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a solution that will achieve the objectives described above, in addition to the following essential requirements:
