Solicitation # W911S227U0049
Solicitation W911S227U0049 is a Request for Quotation issued by the US Army ATEC for the procurement of new electrically heated tanks and temperature controllers for the U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground. The primary requirement consists of a 50-gallon electrically heated cylindrical tank with a 40-gallon working capacity, 10 kW heating, and a Type B agitator powered by a 1.5 horsepower motor, designed to heat and melt paraffin wax to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. The government accepts the STA-RW brand (Part Numbers Y50MB, C4X) or an equal product that meets the specified physical and functional characteristics. This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside, and the contract will be awarded to the responsible offeror whose proposal is most advantageous to the government based on price and technical evaluations. All quotes must be submitted electronically via the PIEE solicitation module by the specified deadline, and failure to include the mandatory Attachment 1 regarding certifications and country of origin may result in a non-responsive rejection. Delivery is required on an F.O.B. destination basis to the Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona, with a preferred delivery timeframe of 30 days. Offerors providing equal products must include descriptive literature, make or model numbers, and details of any modifications. The procurement is subject to various federal regulations, including the Buy American Act and NEMA 12 enclosure standards for motor starters. Acceptance will be based on visual inspection, dimensional measurements, and manufacturing quality upon delivery.

AI Contract Overview

Show more

The Bureau of Reclamation’s Technical Service Center is conducting market research to identify capable manufacturers or authorized distributors of a large-format, commercial-grade stereolithography (SLA) 3D printer that meets stringent technical requirements for producing high-precision hydraulic model components. The system must feature a minimum build volume of 32.7 x 32.7 x 21.6 inches to enable single-print fabrication of large parts, eliminating the risks of multi-piece assembly such as dimensional error, warping, or leaks. It must utilize a dual-laser SLA architecture to achieve the high-throughput speeds necessary to support rapid engineering test cycles, while maintaining commercial-grade dimensional accuracy critical for valid hydraulic flow analysis. The printer must be designed for heavy-duty, near-continuous operation in a production laboratory setting and must be accompanied by a robust support ecosystem including compatible resins, wash/cure systems, maintenance services, and OEM technical support. Interested parties must submit a capability statement detailing their company information, UEI, business size, manufacturer authorization, and comprehensive documentation proving full compliance with all minimum specifications. Submissions must include product literature, technical specifications, past performance with similar large-format SLA systems, and estimated delivery timelines. Only responses that meet every criterion will be considered, as partial compliance is insufficient. The Government will use this feedback to determine if alternative sources exist beyond the currently identified 3D Systems SLA825 Dual-Laser SLA Printer; if no additional viable sources are found, the procurement may proceed as a sole-source acquisition. Responses are due by May 14, 2026, and this effort is conducted as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 333248. All inquiries should be directed to Aaron Valdez at the provided contact information.

DISCLAIMER:
This Sources Sought is issued solely for market research and information¿gathering purposes in accordance with FAR Part 10. This notice does not constitute a solicitation, request for quote, request for proposal, or a commitment by the Government to issue a future solicitation. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with responding to this notice. Information received will be used to determine whether any additional sources exist that can meet all of the Government¿s minimum requirements for this procurement.

DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT
The Bureau of Reclamation, Technical Service Center (TSC), is conducting market research to identify any responsible sources¿manufacturer or authorized distributor¿capable of providing a large¿format, commercial¿grade stereolithography (SLA) 3D printer that meets all of the Government¿s minimum essential technical requirements listed below. This effort is to determine whether alternatives exist to the 3D Systems SLA825 Dual¿Laser SLA Printer, which preliminary market research indicates may be the only product capable of meeting the Government¿s needs.
The required system must support the Hydraulics Laboratory¿s production of large, high¿precision components for physical hydraulic modeling. These components must be manufactured rapidly, consistently, and at dimensions and tolerances that directly affect engineering analysis, project schedules, and operational performance.

MINIMUM REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS
The Government seeks information from firms capable of providing an SLA printer that meets ALL of the following characteristics:
1. Extra¿Large Build Volume
- Minimum build area of approximately 32.7¿ × 32.7¿ × 21.6¿ (or equivalent) enabling the fabrication of large hydraulic model components in a single print. This capability is essential to eliminate multi¿piece segmentation, part reassembly, and the associated risks of dimensional inaccuracy, leaks, warping, or structural weakness.
2. Dual¿Laser SLA Print Architecture
- System must employ at least two independent lasers to achieve high¿throughput print speeds suitable for large¿format parts. This feature is required to reduce long print durations that impede engineering test cycles and delay project schedules.
3. Commercial¿Grade Dimensional Accuracy and Reliability
- Printer must consistently produce high¿precision SLA components appropriate for physical hydraulic model testing where tolerances directly affect flow dynamics and experimental validity.
4. Heavy¿Duty, High¿Utilization Laboratory Operation
- System must be suitable for weekly or near¿continuous use in a production¿oriented environment.
5. Integrated Support Ecosystem
- Availability of compatible resins, wash/cure systems, maintenance services, and OEM technical support.

REQUEST FOR CAPABILITY STATEMENT
Interested firms¿manufacturers or authorized distributors¿who believe they can meet all of these minimum specifications are invited to submit a capability statement describing:
¿ Company name, UEI, business size, and point of contact.
¿ Manufacturer authorization (if applicable).
¿ Detailed specifications for the proposed product showing how every minimum requirement above is met.
¿ Product literature, technical sheets, or data supporting compliance.
¿ Past performance providing similar large¿format SLA systems, if available.
¿ Estimated delivery lead times.
Responses that only partially meet the minimum requirements will not be considered capable of fulfilling the Government¿s need.

PURPOSE OF THIS NOTICE
The purpose of this Sources Sought is to determine whether any authorized sources or alternative products exist that can meet the Government¿s complete requirements. If no additional capable sources are identified, the Government may proceed with a brand¿name procurement based on documented market research demonstrating that only one source can satisfy mission¿essential needs.
