Supply of Large-Capacity FDM/FFF 3D Printers

The contract seeks the procurement and delivery of two industrial-grade FDM/FFF 3D printers engineered for large build volumes and high-temperature extrusion capabilities, aimed at supporting advanced manufacturing and prototyping needs within a Department of Defense maker space located at McConnell AFB. The printers must meet rigorous performance standards to ensure compatibility with high-performance thermoplastics and durability under operational demands typical in defense-related environments. The equipment will be used to enable rapid fabrication of mission-critical parts, tooling, and prototypes, reinforcing the DoD’s broader initiative to expand in-house additive manufacturing capacity. This solicitation is structured as a subcontract under a Total Small Business Set-Aside designation, meaning only small business entities certified by the SBA are eligible to respond, aligning with federal procurement goals to foster small business participation. The NAICS code 333514 identifies the category as Industrial Machinery Manufacturing, reflecting the technical complexity and specialized nature of the requested equipment. All bids must be submitted by the deadline of July 16, 2026, at 2:00 PM, with performance expected to occur in Prairie Village, Kansas, at the specified DoD facility. The procurement is managed by the W7M9 USPFO Activity KSANG 184 under the Department of Defense, and compliance with all technical specifications and delivery timelines is mandatory for contractor selection.
