THOR Software

The Air Force intends to award a sole-source, Firm-Fixed-Price contract to iMetalx, Inc. for a one-year license to THOR software, a proprietary system enabling three-dimensional, high-fidelity reconstruction of space-based objects. This acquisition is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3572 and RFO 6.103-1, as no other available software or service can meet the Government’s mission-critical requirements for space object modeling, making competition impossible. The solicitation number is F4FTSF6149A001, posted on June 11, 2026, with responses due by June 26, 2026. The place of performance is Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio, and the contracting office is AFLCMC/PZITA under agency code FA8604. Although the contract type is Firm-Fixed-Price, no detailed pricing, line-item costs, or contract value are disclosed in the synopsis, consistent with pre-award documentation standards. No evaluation factors, past performance criteria, or technical metrics are provided since the award is based solely on the uniqueness of the THOR software and not on competitive assessment. There are no specified packaging, marking, or inspection requirements, reflecting the digital nature of the software deliverable, and no military standards such as MIL-STD-129 or MIL-STD-2073 are referenced. The vendor’s address is listed as 2350 Marinship Way, Suite 9, Sausalito, California, but no UEI, CAGE code, size status, or socioeconomic certifications are included. No special contract requirements such as security clearances, personnel qualifications, options, or OCI provisions are detailed, and no formal submission formats, page limits, or delivery instructions are prescribed. The contracting point of contact is Rachel Craighead, with Shannon Scott as secondary, and all communications are expected to be directed to the Wright Patterson AFB office.
