High-Precision Dimensional Metrology Services

The contract requires the performance of high-precision dimensional metrology services on 40 components from NIST’s 0.5 mm Offset Short Calibration Kit, with measurement uncertainties not to exceed 10 micrometers for general features and 3 micrometers specifically for connectors. All measurements must be conducted using traceable methods that ensure compliance with national and international standards, maintaining the integrity and reliability of the results. The work is intended to support NIST’s calibration and validation capabilities, emphasizing accuracy and consistency in critical metrology applications. This subcontract opportunity is posted under NAICS code 541380 and is managed by the Department of Commerce through NIST. Responses are due by August 17, 2026, at 11:00 PM, with the solicitation posted on August 4, 2026. The place of performance and specific agency office details are not specified, but the work is tied directly to NIST’s calibration program. Participation requires expertise in high-accuracy dimensional measurement systems and demonstrated capability to meet stringent uncertainty requirements under traceable conditions.
