GA-VGMS-33528
Solicitation # 27M-638A-VA
The Air Force Metrology and Calibration (AFMETCAL) program office is conducting market research via a sources sought synopsis to identify capable vendors for the upgrade of a primary vacuum standard, specifically the GA-VGMS-33528 system. The scope of work involves integrating specific hardware components, including a power supply box, interface cables, a rupture disc, an Inficon ion gauge controller, and a rack rail controller panel. Additionally, the contractor must provide a software upgrade package to correct existing bugs and implement multi-channel analog calibration workflows compatible with Windows 10 or 11 LTSC. The requirement includes on-site engineering services for installation, system validation, and operator training, with final inspection and acceptance occurring at the AFPSL. This is currently a request for information and not a formal solicitation; therefore, no funds are currently available, and responses are not binding offers. Interested vendors under NAICS 334515 must provide a comprehensive capability statement, including their business size, CAGE code, SAM status, and a rough order of magnitude price for one unit over a one-year period. Technical requirements mandate that all test equipment used for validation must have first echelon certification traceable to NIST or an equivalent international laboratory. Responses are due by November 17, 2026, and should be directed to the listed contract specialists.
