This is a $81,000.00 firm fixed-price purchase order awarded by the Department of the Navy's Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific to Stratasys, Inc., a foreign-owned for-profit manufacturer of industrial 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions. The contract is for the delivery of one Emerald Care 450 helium proportional counter, with no set-aside designation used.
The contract is not associated with a larger vehicle, but Stratasys has secured multiple Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contracts with the Naval Air Systems Command, Air Force Materiel Command, and Naval Sea Systems Command to provide 3D printing systems, maintenance services, and related equipment across various military branches. This award demonstrates Stratasys' strategic importance in supplying additive manufacturing capabilities to support the Navy's research, development, testing, and sustainment programs.
