Solicitation details, issuing organization, response deadlines, documents, and interested companies for this government contract opportunity.
AI Contract Overview
TPS LLC is seeking to acquire a Tenney Cevo-20S environmental test chamber to replace its existing Tenney Model T20S-2.0 unit, as no compatible replacement parts are available from current vendors and alternative models either exceed the lab’s dimensional constraints or require power specifications—such as 3-phase AC or 480V—that the facility cannot support. The Cevo-20S is specified because it meets all functional requirements, including the ability to accommodate two instruments simultaneously for efficient testing, while fitting within the existing lab footprint and electrical capacity. This acquisition will be conducted under FAR Part 12 procedures as a non-competitive action, though open to any responsible source that can demonstrate capability to fulfill the requirement. All submissions must be received by August 13, 2026, and should include a capability statement sent to Latisha Hollman at Latisha.A.Hollman@usda.gov; responses will be used solely to determine whether competition is warranted. The contract is designated as a Small Business Set Aside, total, under NAICS code 334513, with performance to occur in Kansas City, Missouri, and the responsible office is the Department of Agriculture’s Minneapolis-based unit.

Full Description
TPS LLC (UEI: EDN3VLXQVK55) using FAR Part 12 procedures. The purpose of this acquisition is to obtain a Tenny Cevo-20S environmental test chamber to replace the current Tenney environmental chamber. The Tenny Cevo-20S environmental test chamber meets all the specified requirements when compared to the current Tenney Model T20S-2.0. See the brand-source justification for further details.
A review of Thermal Product Solutions (TPS) replacement parts vendor for the current Tenney chamber resulted in no compatible parts for potential repairs. Other replacement options provide similar performance yet are too large for exterior dimensions to fit lab space. Additionally, testing requires that entire instruments fit within the interior space of the environmental chamber, preferably two at once for expedited testing. Further, other options require special power requirements that NGC does not possess (3-Phase AC power or 480V supply).
