About this opportunity
The United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa, operating from Spangdahlem Air Base, is seeking to procure a Boonton Model 4500C RF measurement device under a brand-name requirement. This high-precision instrument must comply with Technical Instructions TI 6310.64 and TO 6310.47, featuring advanced capabilities including a frequency range of 30 MHz to 40 GHz, measurement ranges from -60 to +20 dBm, and a 125 MHz video bandwidth. The system requires Real-Time Power Processing, ultrafast trace acquisition, automated power and time measurements, and comprehensive statistical analysis modes including Cumulative Distribution Function capabilities. The device must support random interleaved and real-time sampling with a maximum sampling rate of 100 MS/s across four channels simultaneously, along with multi-level calibration and precise time base functionality with 100 ps resolution. This pre-solicitation notice was posted on July 29, 2025, with a response deadline of August 1, 2025, providing interested contractors with only three days to prepare their submissions.
This procurement opportunity carries no set-aside designation, making it open to all eligible contractors capable of providing the specified brand-name equipment. The technical specifications indicate this is likely a single-unit acquisition for the specialized RF measurement device, which represents sophisticated test equipment typically used for complex RF and pulse analysis applications in military settings. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the notice, nor are specific budget ranges or award values disclosed. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334515 for Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals, and PSC code 6625 for Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments. The extremely short response window suggests this may be an urgent operational requirement or a market research effort to identify qualified suppliers for the brand-name specified equipment.
