PSC Category 52-P (Measuring Tools) encompasses a wide range of precision measurement and inspection equipment used across various federal government sectors. These tools include specialized gages, calipers, levels, comparators, and other precision instruments critical for maintaining technical standards in manufacturing, maintenance, and quality assurance processes. The equipment supports technical validation, calibration, and measurement needs across military, aerospace, industrial, and research environments, requiring high levels of accuracy and compliance with specific technical specifications.

Federal contract awards within this category demonstrate a consistent pattern of small business and service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-asides, primarily managed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and various military branches. Typical contract values range from $10,000 to $250,000, with delivery timelines spanning 30 to 338 days after order. Frequently targeted manufacturers include specialized measuring instrument companies and precision tool manufacturers. Common funding agencies include the Department of Defense, Navy Supply Systems Command, and Army Materiel Command, with performance locations predominantly at military distribution centers and research facilities across the United States.

Recent federal contract opportunities showcase a diverse range of measuring tools, including cannon bore gages, firing pin gages, thread setting plug gages, and specialized calibration equipment. Solicitations span multiple agencies, with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment being the most frequent requester. Typical opportunities involve procuring 3-250 units of highly specialized measuring instruments, often with specific technical requirements and approved manufacturing sources. Performance locations are predominantly at military distribution centers like W1A8 DLA DISTRIBUTION, with agencies seeking precision tools supporting maintenance, repair, and operational support of specialized military and industrial equipment.
