This is a synopsis published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the acquisition of a maintenance plan for Nikon Metrology, Inc. X-Ray Maintenance and repair services. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13-106-1(b)(1) resulting in a firm fixed price contract. This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 811219. Size standard is $20.5 Million. The proposed source is Nikon Metrology, Inc. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received within five (5) days of this notice. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: Nikon Metrology, Inc. is the only available source for adequate and complete maintenance and support of the proprietary hardware and software configurations used in the AFIT/ENY engineering lab Lab, which is required by students attending AFIT without voiding product warranty.
