Combined Sources Sought Notice and Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract for X-Ray Machine Maintenance Services
Notice ID: OFPM/TEAM SS26-31
Contract Opportunity Type: Sources Sought
Response Date: August 6, 2026
Product Service Code (PSC): J063
NAICS Code: 811210
BACKGROUND
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting market research to identify alternative sources that (a) are capable of meeting NIST-s minimum requirements for the following commercial products and commercial services and (b) would be interested in competing for that requirement:
NIST Facilities Services Division/Package Services Group requires regular scheduled maintenance and repair on the Astrophysics Inc XIS-1080 Midsize X-Ray Inspection System. The X-ray machine is critical for daily operations, screening all incoming mail, packages, and freight. Without regular maintenance and service, we compromise our ability to detect explosives, bioterrorism threats, and contraband, severely increasing the security risk to the NIST campus.
NIST has not yet determined its acquisition strategy for this requirement and encourages interested sources to respond to this Notice.
If NIST-s market research indicates there are alternative sources that are capable and interested in competing to fill this requirement, separate and apart from Astrophysics Inc., UEI: DFHNDJLYFD32, then NIST will consider conducting a competitive acquisition in accordance with law and regulation. To be clear, NIST-s identification of Astrophysics Inc. in this Notice does not constitute a binding commitment or obligation for it to conduct a sole source procurement with Astrophysics Inc. for this requirement.
