These programs will be used for the new system as well, both aiding efficiency and reducing costs. Seamless interchangeability of system parts to reduce down time is also required and Instrument Systems is uniquely qualified to provide the Government with a spectroradiometer system that is 100% compatible with the existing IS system.*****Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Gaithersburg, MD, and is required within ten (10) weeks or less after receipt of purchase order (ARO).*****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 500 Employees.*****No solicitation package will be issued.

A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.*****
