EBIC SystemThe United States Air Force, through the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, is conducting market research to identify capable sources, particularly small businesses and designated socio-economic categories, to provide an Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) System for the Air Force Institute of Technology. This effort is strictly for information gathering and does not constitute a solicitation or commitment to award a contract; however, responses will inform the government’s decision on whether to proceed with a future acquisition and whether to set it aside for small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, EDWOSB, SDB, and SDVOSB firms. The NAICS code 334516 applies, with a size standard of 1,000 employees, and response submissions must demonstrate technical compliance with specified requirements, including clear evidence of product alignment and submission of a capabilities package not exceeding five pages in PDF, DOC, DOCX, XLSX, or XLS format. All responses must be emailed by June 25, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time, to the designated points of contact with the exact subject line “AFIT – Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) System” to avoid filtering issues; attachments ending in .zip or .exe will be automatically deleted. Respondents must confirm their socio-economic status and disclose if they are foreign-owned or plan to use foreign nationals on the effort. While submissions are voluntary and not reimbursable, they are critical to evaluating potential contract structures, including possible application of limitations on subcontracting and the non-manufacturer rule. Participation requires SAM registration for future award eligibility, but no contract will result from this notice alone—further solicitation remains entirely at the government's discretion. Questions must be directed to the primary point of contact and must include the required subject line.
