FBO ANNOUNCEMENT: PRESOLICITATION NOTICE, NOTICE OF INTENT ACTION CODE: SPECIAL NOTICE SUBJECT: Sole source – Maintenance agreement for a Quantum Design Cryocool system SOLICITATION NUMBER: NB305000-26-01470 RESPONSE DATE: 08/25/26 DESCRIPTION: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Materials Science and Engineering Division (MSED) is involved in the development of magnetic materials for next generation memory and computing, permanent magnets for motors, biomedicine, and many others. Characterization of these materials to improve their properties and function requires very large fields (14 T) and low temperatures (1.8 K), which are provided by Quantum Design’s Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS). To reduce daily operating costs, the PPMS uses a DynaCool system t...
