The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command seeks to procure a calcium clock laser system through a competitive solicitation process. Offerors must be able to meet technical requirements for a laser system capable of achieving ultra-high stability through an optical atomic clock based on calcium atoms. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical merit, past performance, and price. Questions are due by February 20th and proposals are due no later than February 27th.

There is no set-aside designation for this procurement. The projected NAICS code is 334510 and PSC code is J070. The incumbent contractor is unknown and the place of performance will be at a naval research facility on the west coast. The period of performance is expected to be one year with two one-year options and the government estimates award value between $500,000 to $1,000,000.
