About this award
Maple Leaf Photonics LLC, a woman-owned small business based in Bellingham, Washington, was awarded a $42,750 firm fixed-price purchase order by NASA's Shared Services Center on July 21, 2025, for a refurbished Maple Leaf Fiber Positioner. This contract, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2026, addresses a sole-source requirement for specialized optical equipment needed at NASA Langley Research Center's Photonic Integrated Circuit Advanced Research and Development (PICARD) Laboratory. The Fiber Positioner will enable two-sided fiber optic probing of photonic integrated circuit chips and must deliver automated fiber alignment capabilities, high-resolution positioning of 2 nanometers, and long-travel functionality of 12+ millimeters while maintaining full compatibility with the existing Maple Leaf Photonic probe station infrastructure.
The procurement was conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation commercial item acquisition procedures without a set-aside designation, following NASA's determination that Maple Leaf Photonics is the sole provider capable of meeting the specialized compatibility and technical requirements. The sole-source justification emphasized that alternative solutions would necessitate purchasing an entirely new probe station at a minimum cost of $100,000 with extended lead times, making the targeted acquisition of this refurbished positioner the most cost-effective and operationally efficient approach. The estimated performance period is 8–12 weeks following order receipt.
