Graywolf Sensing Solutions Advanced Sense XM monitor with DSXM-8 Probe KitThe Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity intends to award a sole source Firm-Fixed-Price contract to Graywolf Sensing Solutions for the purchase of specialized air quality monitoring equipment, including the Advanced Sense XM monitor with DSXM-8 Probe Kit, AS-202A Articulating Hotwire Anemometer, and PC-3500 Particle Meter, to support the Defense Centers for Public Health – Aberdeen. Graywolf Sensing Solutions is recognized as the exclusive manufacturer of these instruments, with proprietary software and hardware that restricts maintenance, sensor replacement, and firmware updates to the original vendor exclusively. Third-party procurement would render the equipment incompatible with existing calibration and maintenance protocols, invalidating measurement accuracy and compliance. The equipment is not available through distributors or federal contract vehicles such as GSA, reinforcing the necessity of direct acquisition from the manufacturer. Delivery is scheduled for August 30, 2026, under NAICS code 334516 with a size standard of 1,250 employees. This procurement follows statutory authority 12.102(a) and meets the synopsis requirements of FAR 5.102(a)(6) and 5.203(a). A 15-day window is open for public comment following the July 20, 2026, posting, with responses due by August 5, 2026. No competitive bidding is being conducted, and the contract will be awarded as sole source if no substantive objections are received by the deadline. The sole point of contact for inquiries is Christopher Cook, reachable via email or phone. The equipment will be delivered to Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, and no set-aside provisions apply to this acquisition.
