Misawa Airbase requires a specialized surface analysis system from GelSight, specifically the Mobile Series 2 0.5X Shock-protected System, which includes the device, calibration kit with CAL-G520, BGA D10S20, and GSS-CAL-00014, a cleaning kit, Pelican Hard Case, and USB to Series 2 Cable. The requirement also includes a perpetual software license for GSMobile, a pack of ten low friction TPE gel cartridges, and virtual training. The system is uniquely suited for quantifying three-dimensional surface details regardless of material properties such as reflectivity or transparency, enabling automated workflows in robotic environments with external triggering, batch analysis, STL/CSV output, and immediate PDF report generation to reduce false failures, scrap, and rework. Market research confirmed GelSight as the only vendor capable of supplying this specific hardware, software, and service, with a prior identical procurement under contract N6660423P0165 also executed as a sole source. This posting is a presolicitation notice with no request for quotes; vendors capable of meeting the requirement must submit a capability statement to the point of contact before the deadline, with no set-aside classification applied and the contract to be performed at Misawa Airbase.
