About this file

This document is a SF 1009 Sole Source Justification form for the Department of the Treasury, specifically for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing's Office of Technology Development. The procurement is for replacement parts for a Hyperspectral Imager System (HSIS), including two custom calibration targets and one specialized lens from Headwall Photonics, Inc., a large business. The sole source justification stems from the need to maintain instrument compatibility, as Headwall Photonics originally designed and installed the custom HSIS instrument.

The procurement includes specific line items for custom calibration targets, a 35mm lens (f/1.9, 400-1000nm), shipping/freight, travel, and installation/alignment services. A Notice of Intent to Sole Source was posted on SAM.gov from April 08, 2025 to April 23, 2025, which generated no competitive responses. The contract terms specify delivery of parts within 30 days after award, with an additional 15 days allowed for installation and alignment. The justification emphasizes that acquiring parts and installation services from the original manufacturer ensures continuity of operations for the HSIS instrument.
