CEE x-pro II spinner-hotplate workstation

NASA's National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center is procuring a CEE X-PRO II SPINNER-HOTPLATE WORKSTATION to support microfabrication activities at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) Detector Development Lab. The equipment will replace an aging Headway spinner station that is over 25 years old and unable to maintain required process tolerances for flight hardware production. Key requirements include the capability to process wafers ranging from 100mm to 200mm with precise resist thickness control and uniform coverage, along with programmable recipe storage, advanced automated controls, and contamination control capabilities. The procurement will be evaluated to determine whether to conduct this effort on a sole source or competitive basis, with interested organizations required to submit their capabilities and qualifications in writing to demonstrate why the government should compete this procurement. The deadline for submitting capabilities statements is April 16, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. Central Standard Time, with only written submissions accepted.

This procurement has no set-aside designation and is intended as a sole source contract to Cost Effective Equipment LLC of Saint James, Missouri, pending evaluation of any responses received. The complete CEE X-Pro Workstation delivery must include all specified components such as the Apogee 200 spinner coater and bake plate, safety kit, bowl liners, dispense arms and cartridges, dual pressure cans with sensors, and the Optiflow exhaust system, among other equipment. The period of performance spans twelve to sixteen weeks from the award date, with a firm delivery deadline of sixteen weeks after award for shipment of all parts to NASA GSFC. Performance will be located at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, with the procurement classified under NAICS Code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC Code 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies). The primary point of contact is Cody Guidry, Procurement Specialist, with Kimberlynn Lancaster, Contracting Officer, serving as the secondary contact.
