This is a combined sources sought notice and notice of intent to sole source for the upgrade of a SUSS ACS200 microlithography cluster at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) in Gaithersburg, MD. The existing control computer is broken and obsolete, requiring an upgrade to a newer computer and electronic controller. NIST is seeking information from sources capable of providing a solution that includes a new tool controller panel and PC with a proper operating system, meeting specific technical specifications. All materials must be new, and work must be performed by OEM-trained personnel. The installation, setup, and acceptance will occur at the NIST CNST nanofab cleanroom. The new system must support programmable sequences and recipes, handle substrates automatically and manually, and be configured to perform existing baseline sequences and recipes. Vendor responsibilities include transferring old data, providing all parts and labor, offering maintenance and operations training, and supplying updated tool manuals and schematics. NIST conducted market research and identified SUSS Microtec as the only potential source meeting all minimum requirements. Interested parties should submit company name, address, contact information, UEI (if registered in SAM. gov), details of their capabilities, authorization as a reseller, any concerns about unduly restrictive requirements, suggestions for small business participation, NAICS code, experience, and any other valuable information. Responses are due as soon as possible, preferably before the closing date. Registration in SAM. gov is required for award consideration. This notice is for market research purposes only and does not constitute a commitment to issue a solicitation or award a contract.
