Purchase Order N0017314P1872

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) awarded a $4,299.88 firm fixed-price purchase order to Stanford Research Systems Inc., a small business manufacturer of scientific instruments and precision test equipment based in Sunnyvale, California. The contract, issued on July 23, 2014 with an ultimate completion date of August 8, 2014, involves the procurement of a generator. No set-aside designation was used for this award. Stanford Research Systems Inc. is registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) as a Subchapter S Corporation and has been an active federal contractor since 2001, specializing in the design and delivery of advanced measurement and analysis equipment to defense and civilian agencies.

This purchase order represents a typical engagement for Stanford Research Systems Inc., whose contract portfolio with federal agencies consistently involves specialized scientific and electronic instrumentation supporting research and operational requirements. The company's experience providing sophisticated equipment to the ONR, NASA, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and other government organizations demonstrates its established capabilities in delivering precision measurement instruments. The relatively short performance timeline of approximately two weeks suggests this was a straightforward procurement to fulfill immediate operational or research needs within the ONR's programs.
