Interested parties must submit a capability statement of no more than five pages, including their CAGE code, technical certifications, and past performance, by September 4, 2026.

This notice is for market research and planning purposes only and does not constitute a Request for Quotation (RFQ) or a promise to issue a solicitation. The Government will not pay for any information submitted in response to this notice.


This Sources Sought Notice is being issued as a market research tool pursuant to the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services) to identify potential business sources capable of providing a 1-year comprehensive service, maintenance, and training agreement for the 72 ABW Crisis Action Team (CAT) Audio/Visual (A/V) and Video Surveillance Systems.


Sole-Source & Proprietary Context:
The installed system architecture incorporates custom-compiled control software, uncompiled source code, and integration configurations owned by the original system integrator, Pavion (formerly CTSI). The Government currently anticipates that Pavion is likely the only source capable of fulfilling this requirement without causing unrecoverable mission delays or cost duplication due to proprietary software lock-in.


Scope of Work Includes:


  • Onsite Preventative Maintenance and Training Call: Inspection, firmware updates, minor repairs using technician-stocked parts and cable, system calibration, and a detailed quotation of items recommended for upgrade.
  • Maintenance Plan: Subsequent annual maintenance covering all parts and labor for all products in the systems (detailed in Attachment 1 of the PWS), regardless of whether originally provided by the installing contractor or by the Government. This includes onsite maintenance, user training, help-desk support, and onsite troubleshooting.
  • Emergency and Non-Emergency On-Call Support: On-call troubleshooting and rapid physical response.

Capability Statements Requested:
Interested contractors are invited to submit a concise Capability Statement (max 5 pages) detailing company business size/socioeconomic status, CAGE code, technical capability/OEM certifications to service this specific A/V configuration, and relevant past performance.


  • Response Due Date: September 4, 2026, 16:00 CST

  • Points of Contact: Rachael Thomas (rachael.thomas.3@us.af.mil) and Simon Montalvo (simon.montalvo@us.af.mil).

Intent to Sole Source: Maintenance Support for NIST SPHERE UV Lamp Systems
Solicitation # NIST-NOI-26-7301176
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to sole source a two-year firm-fixed-price purchase order to Excelitas Technologies Corp. for maintenance support of its proprietary NIST 2m and 6-Port SPHERE UV lamp systems located in Gaithersburg, MD, covering the period from September 21, 2026, through September 20, 2028. This acquisition is justified under FAR Part 12.102(a) and 41 USC 1901 due to the exclusive nature of the UV lamp components, specifically the I600 and LH6 models, which are proprietary to Excelitas Technologies Corp. and cannot be serviced or repaired by any other vendor without compromising system functionality, warranty, or calibration integrity. The contractor will be responsible for annual preventative maintenance including replacement of consumables such as magnetrons, bulbs, and dichroic reflectors, as well as as-needed on-site or off-site repairs, operational tuning, and basic training for NIST staff. Support also includes unlimited telephone and email assistance during business hours and one annual line-down service with provision of a loaner system to ensure continuity of operations during major repairs. All maintenance activities must be conducted in compliance with manufacturer specifications and scheduled in advance with the NIST Contracting Officer’s Representative, with formal repair reports submitted within five days of any service. The contractor must transport and handle equipment only as authorized, with NIST responsible for shipping systems to the contractor’s Gaithersburg facility if repairs occur off-site. Any work beyond the defined scope, including additional annual line-down events or repairs requiring major disassembly, requires prior written authorization from a NIST Contracting Officer. The sole source determination is grounded in the technical uniqueness of the SPHERE UV systems, their continuous 95% operational use in critical environmental testing, and the manufacturer’s exclusive control over parts, service protocols, and warranty maintenance. Interested parties may submit capability statements, business information, and SAM registration details to NIST by May 21, 2026, at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, though this notice is not a solicitation and no quotation is being requested.
