About this opportunity
The Army Research Laboratory intends to award a five-year IDIQ contract to FISICA Applied Technologies, Inc. for OEM supplies and services supporting Government-owned FISICA/L3 Flash X-ray and Computed Radiography systems on a sole-source basis, with an estimated maximum contract value of $6.3 million and an ordering period from August 25, 2026, through August 24, 2031.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), implemented by FAR 6.103-1, on the grounds that FISICA is the sole OEM of the installed equipment and owns all proprietary technical data, engineering specifications, manufacturing drawings, software, and intellectual property necessary to manufacture, repair, modify, certify, and support the systems. The Government has invested over $20 million in more than 100 integrated X-ray tubes and associated components used in ARL's experimental facilities for ballistic and dynamic testing. Covered supplies include X-ray tubes, tubeheads, cables, capacitor modules, high-voltage power supplies, XCON trigger systems, CR image plates, image scanners/readers, and controller software. Covered services include factory maintenance and repair, troubleshooting, pulser rebuilding, high-voltage component repair or replacement, calibration and certification, refurbishment, OEM engineering support, and modifications including power-supply and trigger-system upgrades and air conversion of existing 300 kV and 450 kV systems. Market research conducted October 2019 through October 2020 and updated April 2026, combined with a published Notice of Intent to Sole Source, identified no alternative sources capable of providing compatible equipment, parts, or services. This follows predecessor sole-source contract W911QX-21-D-0005 (awarded June 16, 2021, ceiling $5 million). Place of performance is San Leandro, California. Delivery orders will be issued on a Firm-Fixed-Price basis.
