Vacuum Pumps and Controllers

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from industry sources for market research purposes to help determine the appropriate acquisition strategy for vacuum pumps and controllers. The pumps will be used to evacuate a synchrotron beamline to a pressure of 10-10 torr. NIST is looking for companies that can provide equipment similar to those in the draft Statement of Work (SOW). The SOW requires vacuum pumps, pump controllers, and interconnect cabling. • The equipment will be used for laboratory purposes. • The anticipated period of performance is expected to begin on April 1, 2026. • NIST encourages companies to submit information about their capabilities, expertise, and standard commercial pricing. • Companies are also asked to provide information about their company size status and whether they have an active registration for procurement purposes in sam.gov.
