About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Space Command is seeking to procure two infrared (IR) camera systems for Vandenberg Space Force Base to support high-speed imaging of space launch missions. The solicitation (FA461025Q0027) requires replacement of older, unsupported camera systems on mobile optics tracking systems with advanced FLIR RS6780 camera technology. Quotations are due by April 10, 2025, at 1:00 PM PT, and must be submitted via email to designated contracting officers Noah Blake and James Hluska. The contract will be awarded using a lowest-price technically acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology, with technical proposals limited to 20 pages and assessed on whether the proposed IR camera system meets the specified salient characteristics. Offerors will be rated as either "acceptable" or "unacceptable" based on their technical approach, with pricing serving as the primary discriminator.
The solicitation is a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS category 334511 for search, detection, and navigation system manufacturing. All potential contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and possess a Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code. The Independent Government Cost Estimate suggests a comprehensive procurement including the camera system, attachment lenses, neutral density filter wheels, calibration services, and research software licenses. The required delivery timeline is 60 days after contract award, with the place of performance located in Lompoc, California. The camera systems must feature specific technical specifications, including an Indium Antimonide (InSb) detector with a 3.0 - 5.0um spectral range, 640 x 512 pixel resolution, and capabilities for imaging temperatures ranging from 10 to 3000 degrees Celsius.
