About this award
The National Institute of Standards and Technology awarded a $79,820.56 firm fixed-price purchase order to Hottinger Bruel & Kjaer Inc. (doing business as Hottinger Baldwin Measurements Inc.) on September 19, 2025, for a Force Calibration System to support NIST's Hardness Standardization Laboratory. The procurement, conducted under simplified acquisition procedures, involves the delivery of precision measurement equipment including a digital precision amplifier meeting 0.0005% accuracy specifications and three force transducers with capacities of 2 kN, 500 N, and 100 N, all compliant with ISO 376 Class 00 standards and capable of 0.01% expanded uncertainty measurements. The complete system must be delivered to NIST's facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland by January 16, 2026, and includes calibration certificates traceable to a National Metrology Institute, double-shielded signal cables, user manuals, interfacing software, and a minimum one-year warranty covering parts, labor, travel, and technical support.
This award represents a full and open competition procurement with no set-aside designation. Hottinger Bruel & Kjaer Inc., headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, is a foreign-owned manufacturer specializing in test and measurement instrumentation and has established itself as a significant federal contractor, holding a $32.5M Federal Supply Schedule contract and maintaining extensive relationships with agencies including NASA, the Department of Defense, and various civilian agencies. The company's technical expertise in precision measurement and calibration equipment made it well-suited to meet NIST's stringent requirements for maintaining the U.S. national hardness scale realizations, a critical function supporting scientific standardization and industrial measurement accuracy across the nation.
