The Federal Contract IDV award is a single-award indefinite delivery contract with the U.S. Air Force Materiel Command Test Center (AFMC) to provide coaxial thermocouples to support testing at the Arnold Engineering Development Complex Tunnel 9. The prime contractor, Medtherm Corp, is a manufacturer of precision temperature measurement solutions based in Huntsville, Alabama. Under this $641,040 contract, Medtherm has received multiple firm fixed-price delivery orders ranging from $2,703 to $67,620 for the supply of NIST-traceable, type-E, coaxial chromel-constantan thermocouples. These thermocouples are used in the developmental testing and evaluation of aerospace systems and platforms conducted by the AFMC Test Center. Additionally, Medtherm holds a $250,000 blanket purchase agreement with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for the calibration, repair, and replacement of heat flux gauges. The company's temperature measurement products and services have also supported programs at NASA, the Department of Agriculture Forest Service, and other federal agencies.
The original solicitation was a sources sought notice posted by the AFMC Test Center, seeking information from potential vendors to support requirements for specialized temperature measurement devices at its test facilities in Huntsville, Alabama. While no set-asides were used for the IDV award or associated task orders, Medtherm Corp is classified as a small business manufacturer of goods, indicating its eligibility for potential small business set-aside contract opportunities within the agency's procurement portfolio.
