About this award
Vista Photonics, Inc., a small business specializing in advanced laser sensing and optical gas monitoring technologies, was awarded a $131,592.60 firm fixed-price purchase order by NASA's Shared Services Center on May 1, 2025, to procure lasers and photodiodes for Primary Constituent Monitor design. The contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of August 30, 2025, represents a sole source procurement conducted under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). Under this effort, Vista Photonics will procure two specific types of Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) with corresponding photodiodes—a CO2 2003 nm laser and an H2O 1393 nm laser, with 56 units of each part number—to support NASA's Primary Constituent Monitor development for aerospace applications. The contract required Vista Photonics to negotiate procurement requirements, execute the procurement, and supply a comprehensive data package, with weekly procurement status updates and detailed manufacturer data packages required within 10 days of hardware receipt.
This award reflects Vista Photonics' established capabilities in developing specialized optical sensor technologies for spacecraft and research environments. The work will be performed at the company's facility in Las Cruces, New Mexico, with no small business set-aside designation applied despite the contractor's small business status. This procurement falls under NAICS Code 335999 and represents part of NASA's broader effort to advance gas detection and monitoring systems for complex aerospace environments, building on Vista Photonics' track record of securing federal contracts for advanced optical sensor development primarily through NASA's Small Business Innovation Research program.
