About this opportunity
The Department of Commerce Office of the Secretary is seeking to procure a specific selection of coaxial fixed attenuators for the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) to support propagation measurements and model validation testing. The procurement requires four distinct attenuator types with varying power and frequency specifications, including units ranging from 30dB to 50dB across different power levels and frequency bandwidths. The primary objective is to verify test systems and perform precise propagation measurements, with technical requirements including specific connector types (N-male input and N-female output), frequency ranges from DC to 18 GHz, and strict performance standards for attenuation accuracy and operating temperature. This is a firm-fixed-price contract with a delivery deadline of May 30, 2025, aligned with fiscal year 2024 project planning. The solicitation is classified under NAICS category 334419 for Electronic Component Manufacturing, indicating the specialized nature of the required electronic equipment.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate any specific set-aside designations, meaning the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors. The total procurement involves 9 total attenuator units with varying specifications, including 3 units of 40dB/500W, 3 units of 30dB/100W, 2 units of 50dB/250W, and 1 unit of 50dB/1000W. While specific budget details are not explicitly stated, the complexity and specialized nature of the equipment suggest a potentially significant contract value. The technical requirements are stringent, with specifications including 50-ohm impedance, precise VSWR standards, and operational temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C. The procurement is scheduled with a response deadline of December 17, 2024, providing potential vendors approximately five days to review and prepare their submissions for this specialized scientific instrumentation requirement.
Notice text
The requirement is to acquire a selection of attenuators to verify test systems and to perform propagation measurements for the validation of models in ITS.M division’s propagation measurements and modelling tests. These tests require attenuators with frequency bandwidths that can operate at higher continuous power levels and maintain stable characterized operation. (See attached)
