About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force issued a Notice of Proposed Contract Action announcing its intent to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price commercial purchase order to North Star Imaging, Inc. for a Computed Tomography X5000 Scanner 450 kV High-Energy Upgrade, with a response deadline of September 10, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time.
The Air Force Research Laboratory requires procurement and turnkey OEM integration of a 450 kV X-ray power source upgrade kit into an existing Government-owned NSI X5000 CT scanner system at Edwards Air Force Base, California. The scope includes supply of a 450 kV X-ray source and high-voltage generator, full mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software integration into the current X5000 cabinet, and preservation of 100 percent existing 225 kV micro-focus source functionality. The estimated period of performance is eight weeks after receipt of order. NSI is justified as sole source because its X5000 architecture, software drivers, imaging suite, and radiation safety interlocks are proprietary, with no third-party vendors or authorized integrators capable of performing integration without voiding warranty, risking hardware incompatibility, or compromising radiation shielding protocols. The upgrade supports the Golden Dome national defense program; the high-energy source is necessary to penetrate dense solid rocket motor propellant to identify critical defects undetectable by the baseline 225 kV source.
Interested sources must submit written capability statements providing evidence of NSI authorization, technical documentation of integration ability, radiation safety compliance verification per 21 CFR 1020.40 and EN 61010-2-091:2012, business size, CAGE code, UEI number, and commercial item representations and certifications per FAR Part 12. Submit responses to Contract Specialist Daniel Thompson (daniel.thompson.46@us.af.mil) and Contracting Officer Romina Snyder (romina.snyder.2@us.af.mil; 661-277-0987). Solicitation reference number is F4FGQR6153A001.
