About this opportunity

The US Army Yuma Proving Ground is seeking a contractor to provide advanced laser bore and chamber add-on kits for 120mm and 155mm cannons. The solicitation requires a comprehensive system with specific technical specifications, including laser scanning modules with high-resolution capabilities and precise measurement standards. Key technical requirements include axial scan resolution of 0.25mm, rotary scan resolution of 0.1mm, and sensor resolution of 0.005mm, with measurement accuracy of at least 0.025mm in bore and 0.05mm in bore chamber. The contract demands Windows-10 based software with automatic sensor calibration, data storage compatibility, and advanced data analysis capabilities. The solicitation is open until April 21, 2025, with a posted date of March 12, 2025, targeting innovative measurement and control device manufacturers.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, focusing on the NAICS category 334519 for Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing. The contract will involve providing two complete laser bore gauging kits: one for 120mm cannons and another for 155mm cannons, each including guide tube assemblies, calibration rings, and specialized software. Each kit requires hard-sided shipping storage cases and must meet stringent quality assurance provisions, including a full one-year warranty. The procurement is being managed by the Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Drum, with performance likely occurring at the Yuma Proving Ground facility. While specific award value is not disclosed, the detailed technical specifications suggest a sophisticated and potentially high-value contract focused on precision measurement technology for military cannon systems.
