NIST (Solicitation NIST‑SS26‑112) has issued a combined Sources‑Sought notice and Notice of Intent to Sole‑Source a Field Standard and Programmable Load Test Set for Accuracy Evaluation of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE). The agency is conducting market research to identify commercial sources that can provide a new, fully‑featured EVSE test system (one unit) meeting the draft Statement of Work’s Section I objectives and all Section III minimum technical specifications. The system will be used in a five‑day EVSE Metrology Course for weights‑and‑measures officials and must include FOB‑destination delivery, warranty, training, and all required documentation. NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) applies, and NIST indicates that, absent alternative sources, it intends to award a sole‑source contract to Tesco – The Eastern Specialty Company under FAR 12.201‑1. Respondents must submit a ≤10‑page response (Word, Excel, or PDF) providing complete company information, UEI, and details for each recommended product: manufacturer, model, technical specifications, performance capabilities, customization limits, U.S. manufacturing origin, pricing, standard terms of sale, and any existing Federal Supply Schedule contracts.
