Description
DUE: January 31, 2012 The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWARSYSCEN) Atlantic, Advanced Technology Branch (Code 52130) is seeking information on commercially-available portable, handheld Raman spectrometers. Raman spectrometers use point detection to identify individual chemicals or compounds in solid and liquid samples. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Authorized Equipment List (AEL) item number for this equipment is 07CD-01-DPRS: Detector, Raman Spectroscopy, Point, Chemical Agent. The primary focus is on portable, handheld Raman spectrometers. The target audience for this information is hazardous material technicians, bomb technicians, and other emergency response personnel that may respond to suspect hazardous material incidents and all submittals should be suited to their specific needs. Review of this information is being performed for the DHS System Assessment and Validation for Emergency Responders (SAVER) Program, which aims to conduct objective comparative assessments and validation of commercial equipment and systems and provide those results with the emergency responder community. For more information on the SAVER Program, visit https://www.rkb.us/saver. All information received will be treated as public knowledge and may be used in SAVER Program documentation; therefore, vendors should not submit proprietary information in response to this RFI. Specific information sought includes: 1. Company information, including name, address, URL, revenue, and number of employees. 2. Whether the company is a manufacturer or distributor. 3. A point of contact for follow-up information, and the point of contacts phone number and e-mail address. 4. Product name and a brief description (75 words or less) of each detector. 5. Cost information such as purchase price and General Services Administration (GSA) schedule information. The submitted information will be evaluated for inclusion in SAVER projects. If a SAVER project on this type of equipment is executed, the equipment selection will be based upon a number of factors, including responder surveys and focus group inputs. Consequently, follow-up requests for feedback should not be made through Federal Business Opportunities posting agency. Vendors may be contacted following submission for more detailed product information. Vendor provided information may be reformatted for publication in SAVER Program documents. SUBMITTALS Respondents are required to complete the attached product summary questionnaire (RamanSpectroscopy_RFI_pub.pdf) for each product and submit the questionnaires following the instructions on the first page of the questionnaire. The questionnaire is located at the link at the end of this posting (https://e-commerce.sscno.nmci,navy.mil in the SSC Atlantic folder under Special Notices). The TECHNICAL POINT of contact is Eddie Broyles at eddie.broyles@navy.mil. This RFI is for INFORMATION GATHERING AND PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY, and SHOULD NOT be construed as a Request for Proposal (RFP) or solicitation of an offer. The Government DOES NOT INTEND TO AWARD a contract on the basis of this RFI or otherwise pay for the information solicited. Submission of vendor information constitutes consent to publication of that information in SAVER Program documentation. E-mail your non-technical, contract related, questions to the Contract Specialist, Paula Somers at paula.somers@navy.mil.
