About this file

This document is a Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source or Brand Name for the procurement of a Vacuum Instruments Corporation, LLC MS50GT Helium Leak Detector.

The total estimated cost of this sole source effort is undisclosed, with an estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery of 12 weeks. The sole source justification is that the existing MS50/MS50GT Helium Leak Detectors are currently in use at the Pyrotechnics Test Facility, so personnel have the necessary training and procedures in place to operate the equipment safely, efficiently, and reliably. Purchasing the Vacuum Instruments Corporation, LLC system will eliminate the need for additional training and will streamline test set-up, execution, and maintenance, resulting in cost and schedule savings to the Government.

The related federal contract opportunity is a Special Notice for the Purchasing of a helium leak detector, with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center as the responsible federal agency.
