About this award
The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $80,835 purchase order to Quantum Microwave Components LLC, a small disadvantaged business located in Hingham, Massachusetts, for the procurement of cryogenic amplifiers and associated equipment. The contract, awarded on May 28, 2025, with completion targeted for July 9, 2025, represents a sole-source acquisition justified by specific compatibility requirements with recently acquired laboratory infrastructure. The procurement includes Low Noise Factory branded components comprising four cryogenic amplifiers (LNF-LNC0.3_14B), four room temperature low-noise amplifiers (LNF-LNR1_15B_SV), one power block, one four-channel power supply, four triple junction cryogenic isolators, two triple junction cryogenic circulators, and six metal shields. This no-set-aside contract falls under FAR Part 12 and Part 13 simplified acquisition procedures and is classified under NAICS code 334515 for Instrument Manufacturing.
Quantum Microwave Components LLC, which serves as the exclusive North American distributor for the specified Low Noise Factory components, was selected due to the unique wiring configuration of a Maybell Quantum Industries dilution refrigerator that requires compatible branded equipment. The company specializes in designing and manufacturing advanced cryogenic microwave and millimeter-wave components for federal research institutions, with established relationships serving NIST, the Smithsonian Institution, NASA, and the Air Force Research Laboratory. The procurement supports the Air Force's research objectives in quantum computing, telecommunications, advanced sensing technologies, and related scientific endeavors requiring sophisticated microwave and cryogenic technologies operating across frequency ranges from 1 to 15 GHz.
