PXIe Discrete Input CardsThe Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division in Lakehurst, New Jersey, plans to procure three PXI Discrete Input Cards (P/N 75G5-2-DT5DT5DT50FC10) from North Atlantic Industries Inc. on a sole-source basis. This procurement is necessary to replace the obsolete VXI cards with upgraded PXI cards as part of an engineering change proposal. The three Circuit Card Assembly spares are required to support the fleet based on reliability data, specifically the mean time before failure of the legacy Engine Test Instrumentation system that uses these parts. North Atlantic Industries is the sole provider capable of meeting the government's requirements due to their proprietary, patented Configurable Open Systems Architecture technology and exclusive intellectual property rights, including FPGA logic and board support packages, which no other vendor can replicate. The acquisition will be conducted under the authority of Title 10, U.S.C. Section 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which allows sole-source procurement when only one responsible source can fulfill the agency’s needs. Although this notice is not a request for competitive proposals, the government will accept responses within 15 days of the notice’s publication to consider whether competition is feasible. However, no solicitation will be issued for this contract. The designated points of contact for this procurement are Justin Panecki and Terrence Shearer at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, located at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, New Jersey.

Sources Sought - 0.5mm Calibration KitThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting a sources sought market research to identify potential vendors capable of supplying a 0.5mm Calibration Kit in accordance with specified requirements. This is not a solicitation or request for quotation but a step to gather information on qualified businesses to inform the acquisition strategy, including the possibility of a small business set-aside. NIST invites responses from all interested and responsible firms, including those qualified under various small business designations, and the effort is aligned with NAICS code 334515 for instrument manufacturing. Responses must include company details such as size, location, manufacturing data, product specifications, lead times, and any relevant small business certifications, limited to five pages or less. Following this market research, NIST may issue a competitive procurement on the System for Award Management (SAM) website, potentially favoring small business vendors if multiple qualified candidates are identified. The product will be for use in Boulder, Colorado, and interested firms must submit capability statements by June 17, 2026. The goal is to obtain sufficient information to finalize acquisition plans while ensuring qualified vendors are considered to meet this technical calibration kit requirement. Contact information for inquiries is provided, highlighting the administrative and procedural nature of this engagement rather than an immediate contract award.
