The Office of Naval Research awarded a $126,723 firm fixed-price purchase order to Onto Innovation Inc. for Hall Measurement Systems on October 13, 2015, with completion targeted for November 16, 2015. The contract, which carries no small business set-aside designation, will be performed in Milpitas, California. Onto Innovation Inc., a high-technology manufacturer specializing in process control solutions and advanced measurement equipment, brings substantial federal contracting experience across multiple defense and civilian agencies, including NASA, the U.S. Geological Survey, and the Department of the Air Force.
This award represents a focused procurement within Onto Innovation's broader portfolio of specialized technological solutions. The company's established capabilities in precision measurement technologies and optical metrology instruments, supported by subsidiaries Nanometrics Inc. and 4D Technology Corporation, position it to deliver the required Hall Measurement Systems to support naval research objectives. The relatively compressed performance timeline of approximately one month suggests this purchase order fulfills an immediate operational requirement for the Office of Naval Research's research initiatives.
