High-resolution, high-throughput spectrographThe Army Research Laboratory's Detonation Science and Modeling Branch is seeking to acquire one high-resolution, high-throughput spectrograph with specific advanced technical capabilities. The spectrograph must include an intensified camera with a continuous wavelength range from at least 180 to 1100 nanometers, enabling detection of specific carbon and oxygen spectral lines at 247 nm and 777 nm, respectively. Key technical requirements include a minimum resolving power of 4000 using an intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) detector, a Gen II or equivalent ICCD detector with UV/VIS/NIR sensitivity, adjustable gate pulse delays, and a modular design for interchangeable gratings and detectors to improve resolving power up to 50,000. Additional features include specific optical characteristics such as large input collimator f-number, small detector focusing optics f-number, and spectrograph demagnification to balance throughput and resolution, as well as the capability to trigger via neodymium: yttrium aluminum garnet laser signals and solarization-resistant fiber optic cables. The solicitation permits all responsible sources to submit quotations, with no set-aside restrictions, under NAICS code 334516. The Government plans a competitive acquisition under FAR Part 12 for commercial products and expects to issue a formal Request for Quotation with an anticipated award date of July 31, 2026. Submissions in response to this presolicitation are due by 3:00 pm Eastern Time on July 1, 2026, and must be sent electronically. The equipment must also be compact and lightweight, weighing less than 40 pounds with dimensions under 20 inches in each direction, include all necessary software for calibration and control producing linearized wavelength spectra, and come with a minimum one-year warranty and coverage of shipping and insurance costs. The point of contact for this procurement is Joseph M. Dellinger at the Army Contracting Command, Adelphi Division.

AI Contract Overview

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting market research to identify potential vendors capable of supplying a CBr4 Gas Delivery System used for carbon doping in molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown devices. This effort is categorized as a Sources Sought announcement, strictly serving as a preliminary market tool rather than a request for proposals or quotations, with no current obligation for the Government to award a contract. NIST aims to gather information on manufacturers, including both small and large businesses in the United States, to determine the best acquisition method. If the research identifies at least two qualified small businesses, the procurement may be set aside for small business competition. Respondents must provide detailed information such as company names, country of manufacture, technical specifications, delivery lead times, and relevant past experience, limiting their responses to no more than four pages. This contract opportunity is classified under the NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and is managed through NIST’s Acquisition Management Division within the Department of Commerce. Responses are due by June 15, 2026, with submissions directed to the Contract Specialist via email. The procurement will ultimately be conducted on the System for Award Management (sam.gov), after NIST completes the analysis of the industry feedback. The location for performance is Boulder, Colorado, and the requirement is still in draft form, subject to change before a formal solicitation is issued. No quotes or proposals are being accepted at this stage, and proprietary information must be clearly marked in the submission.
