About this opportunity
NASA's Shared Services Center is seeking to procure Christie Digital Systems laser projectors for the Goddard Space Flight Center's WOW visualization facility, with a specific focus on a sole source contract to Associates in Media Engineering, Inc. (AME). The procurement involves two 4K25RGB 25k-lumen RGB Laser Projectors to be delivered within 10 weeks after purchase order receipt. The agency intends to issue this contract under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), utilizing commercial item acquisition procedures. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications in writing to dorothy.s.baskin@nasa.gov by 11:59 a.m. EST on May 6, 2025. The evaluation will solely determine whether the procurement will be conducted on a competitive basis, with the government retaining full discretion in the final decision.
The contract is set aside for total small business and falls under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance. AME, in partnership with Christie Digital Systems, is positioned as the exclusive vendor due to their unique institutional knowledge and prior installation experience with the existing infrastructure. The procurement represents Phase 3 of a project upgrade, with a total project duration of 60 days after award. The delivery location will be NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Building 21, Room 125, in Greenbelt, Maryland. The sole source justification emphasizes that using an alternative vendor would result in significant additional costs for engineering and labor to integrate a new vendor with the current system components.
