About this opportunity
The Naval Research Laboratory is announcing a sole-source intent to award a purchase order to BUCHI Corporation for a laboratory-scale spray dryer, with a response deadline of July 27, 2026. This is not a competitive solicitation; NRL has determined that only BUCHI can satisfy the requirement, and the procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-2 (unusual and compelling urgency). The notice also references a separate intent to procure repair services for an existing BUCHI laboratory-scale spray dryer under the same urgency justification.
Interested parties may submit evidence of capability to compete by July 27, 2026, but any response must demonstrate clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. NRL will consider submissions solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement; the decision to proceed with sole-source award remains at the government's discretion. The estimated value falls below the simplified acquisition threshold of $350,000. NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) applies; PSC 6640 covers the equipment category. No reimbursement is available for capability submissions, and no solicitation package is available for review.
