Extended Warranty for Stratasys Fortus 900MC 3D printer

NASA's Shared Services Center is seeking an extended warranty for a Stratasys Fortus 900MC 3D printer through a sole source procurement. The two-year extended warranty contract will cover preventive maintenance visits by certified Stratasys service representatives, priority scheduling for field service, replacement of defective or worn parts, installation of hardware updates and modifications, and provision of software maintenance releases. This procurement is being conducted under FAR 12.102(a) authority for commercial items and services, with evaluation based on capability statements submitted by interested organizations to determine whether competitive bidding is warranted. Interested parties must submit written capabilities and qualifications by 7:00 a.m. Central Standard Time on April 24, 2026, to Shanna Patterson, Procurement Specialist, at Shanna.L.Patterson@nasa.gov. The Government reserves discretion to proceed as sole source or conduct full and open competition based on submitted capabilities.

This procurement includes no set-aside designations, and Stratasys, Inc., located in Minnetonka, Minnesota, has been identified as the incumbent and intended sole source contractor based on its exclusive proprietary ownership of the Fortus 900MC machine's integrated technologies. The contract will be performed at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, with performance commencing upon expiration of the current warranty in February 2026 and extending through February 2028. The specific award value is redacted in the available documents; however, the justification for sole source procurement establishes that alternative vendors would create compatibility issues, void existing warranties, and jeopardize ISO 9001 equipment calibration compliance. The procurement is categorized under NAICS 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance) and PSC J049 (Maintenance and Repair Shop Equipment).
