Hyper Spectral Imagers

Infrared Imaging, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, has been awarded a firm-fixed-price contract to deliver two advanced Commercial Off-the-Shelf Hyper-spectral Imaging Systems to support the 782nd Test Squadron at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. The systems consist of a Short-Wave/Mid-Wave Infrared unit and a Mid-Wave/Long-Wave Infrared unit, each including associated telescope assemblies, acquisition computers, analysis software, and on-site installation and training. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis under FAR 19.1406, as market research confirmed only one manufacturer’s product met the government’s technical requirements and only one responsible SDVOSB was capable of fulfilling the requirement. The period of performance for delivery is 36 weeks from the receipt of the order, with the official place of performance listed as Goulds, Florida, though operational use is at Eglin AFB. The contract type is firm-fixed-price, and the NAICS code is 334511. The solicitation number is FA282326P0016, issued by the Department of Defense’s FA2823 contracting office located at Eglin AFB, Florida. No contract value is disclosed, and no detailed clauses, technical standards, packaging requirements, payment instructions, or inspection criteria are specified beyond the foundational authority for the sole-source award. Point of contact for the contract includes Darren Alvarez and Gretchen Tubolino. The offeror affirmatively represented its SDVOSB status, which formed the legal basis for the non-competitive procurement, and no other socioeconomic certifications or contract options are referenced.
