NASA Shared Services Center is seeking a sole source contract with LightMachinery Inc. for the fabrication, assembly, and testing of an off-axis, pressure-tuned, field-widened Michelson interferometric spectral filter for High Spectral Resolution Lidar at 467 nm. This commercial acquisition, conducted under FAR 12.102(a) and NAICS code 334516, will be performed at the NASA Langley Research Center. The period of performance is scheduled from June 2026 through September 30, 2027. The project requires the delivery of a fully assembled interferometer and associated components, including Invar-36 bonding plates and a coated beamsplitter cube, all meeting strict space-grade environmental standards. Technical requirements include a free spectral range of 1.576 GHz, contrast exceeding 100:1, and a wavefront error of 10 nm RMS or less. The system must be compatible with high vacuum environments, survive vibration testing of 6.8 g-RMS, and undergo rigorous thermal cycling between -30C and +60C. Key deliverables include a final metrology report and documentation of thermal cycling. The contractor is responsible for multiple shipping iterations to NASA Langley for polishing and wavefront correction, utilizing custom shock-absorbing packaging with indicators. Interested organizations were invited to submit capabilities and qualifications by August 6, 2026, to determine if the procurement would remain sole source or become competitive.
