Sources Sought - Vector Network Analyzer Extender Head Drivers

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors—large and small (including SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZone, SDVOSB, VOSB)—that can supply Vector Network Analyzer Extender Head Drivers in accordance with the attached specifications (NAICS 334515, small‑business size standard 750 employees). Responses are limited to a five‑page electronic capability statement and must include a company profile (employees, locations, UEI and CAGE), product name, manufacturer and country of origin, specification sheets, typical lead time (including installation and training), and verification of small‑business status. NIST will use the results to determine whether a competitive, small‑business set‑aside acquisition will be issued on SAM.gov; this Sources Sought announcement is not a solicitation and the government will not pay for any information submitted. Key technical and logistical requirements include on‑site presence of a U.S. citizen vendor technician for more than three days (foreign nationals must be pre‑registered 30 days prior), rigging, unpackaging, equipment set‑up, start‑up services, and turnkey installation at the NIST Boulder facility. Acceptance testing of the extender head and calibration kit will occur at NIST Boulder, with a non‑exceeding 14‑day inspection period. The vendor must provide a one‑year manufacturer warranty. All inquiries should be directed to Daniel Kent (daniel.kent@nist.gov, 303‑497‑6533).
